Description: Juli Tomlin will discuss the things you should consider when developing an accident review panel. As risk manager of the city of Gainesville, Georgia with over 20 years of experience in public and private sector risk management. Learn the importance of an accident review panel, the best individuals to be a part of the panel and the benefits it can provide to your entity or community. An Accident Review Panel Brings Awareness Having an accident review panel within your entity has the ability to bring awareness while providing standard reviews across your departments. Not only does it require your drivers to be held accountable but will also help keep your records in order. In Gainesville, since implementing an accident review panel Juli’s entity has seen a 35% reduction in auto accidents in the first 2 years, the panel has been able to identify trends of when the highest accidents occur through the year and has allowed them to provide resources and safety training before those time periods to avoid future accidents. Attributes for who is included on the panel - Someone who can give credibility (i.e. a department director) - A police officer for investigations, accurate findings and reassurance - A safety community member to tie in the overall safety of the departments - Each individual must be able to be fair, impartial and trusting of confidential information. - An interest in reducing company liability Be sure to consult with your attorney for guidance before organizing an accident review panel whether or not it should be open to the public or a private panel. To avoid any legal issues, it is recommended that you and your team anticipate that in the creation of your policy terms and conditions.
