[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 3105064, member: 58386"] What OF doesn't understand is the cold hard fact that when it comes to wrecks the first hurdle that has to be cleared is the question of prevention. Before you can even file the insurance claims you have to satisfy X regarding the prevention issue. It has always been a sore spot with Ground contractors. Some years back the safety director came in and starting giving us a sermon on safety. Having had enough I stood up and said , " look your company divested itself of every workplace health and safety related liability as it pertains to this initiative yet you're standing here barking at us about safety"..His response? . "I cant' argue that point". He retired a few months later. Yet despite the fact that the liability monkey is on your back they still act like they stand to lose money. The only thing they were worried about is the fact that Marsh/Protective have them notice of their intention to cancel the fleet insurance contract. They searched worldwide and found no one so they had to go hat in hand and ask Protective to take them back. BTW. In the first 5 or 6 years of the so called "work accident" policy it only had a lifetime medical expense benefit of $250,000 ,ridiculously low even for that time. After myself and I'm sure others got on them about that they finally raised it to $750,000. [/QUOTE]
