“This workshop will help managers protect individuals
from harm, protect public property from damage or
loss, and deliver vital services to their communities.”
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Most property losses are preventable. And when a loss does occur,
most can be contained and mitigated before the damages escalate.
CIRMA members manage a wide array of facilities, representing
over $10 billion worth of public property under their care. This
CIRMA workshop provides property managers the tools they
need to identify and analyze hazards at their facilities so that
they can successfully prevent many types of costly losses.
Floods, fires, and accidents rarely allow time for those involved
to stop and think. So post-loss preparation is as important as
pre-loss prevention. This workshop guides attendees through the
proper steps to take during and after a loss, helping you to
prevent small losses from becoming big losses, and bigger losses
from becoming disasters. The instructors, both experts in loss
prevention, mitigation, and restoration, will walk attendees
through the steps of property risk assessment, preparations and
common clean-up tasks.
Topics covered:
Cold weather precautions.
Water clean-up—When should you call in a specialist.
Mechanical and life-safety systems maintenance.
Monitoring contractors’ work.
Cutting, welding and other hot work—careless use can
increase the likelihood of fires.
Impairment programs—To maintain the integrity of
your life-protection systems, an impairment handling
program should be implemented to control situations
when the life protection system is shut down.
Property inspections—How to perform thorough and
effective property inspections.
