What are the risks that worry w88 online sports betting the most?

By Ben Rickard Director, Builtin Insurance Brokers
Accidents on site have been identified as the most serious w88 online sports betting to the survival of a building business, according to participants at this year’s ITM Training Days.

The results were compiled during Builtin’s w88 online sports betting management workshops over the four days covering Auckland, Christchurch, Hamilton and Palmerston North. Almost 1,000 builders, ranging from individual LBPs to owners of large construction businesses, were asked to identify the top five risks that would impact the survivability of their business.

Natural disaster/Weather was the 3rd highest identified w88 online sports betting

Health and Safety
Aside from the physical and emotional trauma of a serious incident, the financial impact of a site being shut down while an accident is investigated and the potential time and money involved in any resulting WorkSafe prosecution weigh heavily on businesses and their owners.

From a w88 online sports betting management perspective, the health and safety obligations on builders and the support systems available are extensive. As the greatest w88 online sports betting identified by builders, this should, and in most cases rightly does, attract the most focus from construction businesses.

Bad debts
Second on the list was customers not paying or cancelling. Participants felt that while this was relatively rare, it could have a significant adverse impact on their financial position if and when it occurred.

Builders also have a good amount of legislative support to mitigate bad debt w88 online sports betting through the Construction Contracts Act and the payment claim/payment schedule system. There is also a wide availability of professionally drafted standard form contracts, escrow services and other mechanisms to ensure prompt payment and minimise disputes. However, unlike health and safety, these are often not well used by builders, leaving them exposed to a significant area of w88 online sports betting without good w88 online sports betting mitigation practices in place. Insurance is typically unavailable to cover this w88 online sports betting, except for larger businesses where trade credit insurance becomes an option.

Natural disasters
Third was the impact of heavy weather and natural disasters. While the destruction caused by Cyclone Gabrielle and the flooding in large parts of Auckland in early 2023 is still relatively recent, participants in Christchurch ranked natural disasters as the greater w88 online sports betting. Accidental property damage by staff (Auckland), the availability and reliability of staff (Hamilton) and theft of tools (both Palmerston North & Auckland) were seen as greater risks.
Damage and losses caused by weather and natural disasters are areas where insurance can traditionally help to reduce the financial impact on a business. The same applies to accidental damage caused by workers and theft of w88 online sports betting.

Human resources
Staffing is another area that is heavily legislated but not necessarily in the employer’s favour. It’s also not an area where insurance can typically help reduce the financial cost of issues caused by workers (except in the case of employment disputes or liability for illness/injury).

At a total level, the top five risks represented over half of all responses. This tells us unsurprisingly that w88 online sports betting nationwide have very similar risks. However, there is some local variation.

w88 online sports betting mitigation
The responses, compiled via a series of focus groups, also asked participants to identify solutions to mitigate the risks they identified. None of these solutions will surprise anyone. Unfortunately, it’s the putting into practice of effective w88 online sports betting mitigation strategies where builders typically fall down. From our experience this usually comes down to the time involved, the fact that the work required is often outside a builder’s skill set and comfort zone, or they have a poor appreciation of the cost-benefit return from investing in w88 online sports betting mitigation measures.
Creating a w88 online sports betting register
Builtin’s Construction w88 online sports betting Management Programme aims to change this. By making it affordable and easy for builders to create and maintain their own w88 online sports betting register, Builtin’s goal is that builders will be able to take a more structured approach to managing their risks. The programme involves an initial w88 online sports betting assessment workshop with business owners and key staff. Key risks are identified and quantified, and mitigation measures are developed (if they don’t already exist).

This also helps business owners to identify and close gaps in their existing w88 online sports betting management practices. An easy-to-use, affordable online portal allows the business to assign owners to each w88 online sports betting, with regular review dates scheduled so that nothing falls through the cracks.
