Who are the Stakeholders?
• Before choosing and executing a risk management plan, the VHA must identify its stakeholders:Patients DonorsVolunteersEmployees
![Page 7: Risk Management and Special Events](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061207/548415a0b4af9ff2268b46d5/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Patients and Risk Management
• The best risk management practices make the organization able to serve patients better– Patients are served in an environment that meets
their needs more often– More patients are served because the
organization spends less money responding to negative events
– Patients are protected from the organization’s negative risk outcomes
![Page 8: Risk Management and Special Events](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061207/548415a0b4af9ff2268b46d5/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Donors and Risk Management
• Nonprofit organizations are subject to the risk appetites of donors– Donors (especially major gifts) must be convinced
that the organization will make prudent decisions and investments of their contributions
– Donors will reduce their giving if bad events happen
![Page 9: Risk Management and Special Events](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061207/548415a0b4af9ff2268b46d5/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Volunteers and Risk Management
• The most valuable volunteers recognize that they are taking risks along with the organization
• Volunteers who are not concerned about their own risks may actually increase the organization’s risk
![Page 10: Risk Management and Special Events](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061207/548415a0b4af9ff2268b46d5/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Employees and Risk Management
• Employees should not have to suffer the consequences of poor risk management– Budgets limited by poor risk financing tools– Working conditions compromised by poor risk
choices– Unneeded diligence to protect themselves
![Page 11: Risk Management and Special Events](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061207/548415a0b4af9ff2268b46d5/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Role of Risk Management
• Good stewardship of donor funds, volunteer time, attention to patient needs and employee protection require good risk management practices
• For a nonprofit organization, these practices do not differ much from a for-profit corporation’s good risk management practices

Contract Review• Who Is An Insured?
– Executive Officers, Directors, Employees and Volunteers of the VHA
• Additional Insured Status– Amends the “Who Is An Insured” section of policy– Frequently requested due to litigious society– Extent of Coverage afforded is based on Endorsement
• Waiver of Subrogation– Precludes recovery by grantors insurer regardless of liability on
the part of the requesting entity – Accident experience becomes part of grantors experience rating
impacting future premiums

Sharing Best Practices• Brain storm event hazards both internally and with your Risk
Management Advisor and pre-plan response
• Engage your Insurance Broker in this process!
• Give strong consideration to subcontracting hazardous tasks such as food and drink service, amusement operation, and security and seek proper indemnification and waivers
• Collect participant and volunteer waivers
• Name an on-site incident response coordinator and communicate contact information to all staff and volunteers
• Establish accident investigation procedures that include witness statements and pictures

Weather Coverage• Coverage for loss of fixed expenses, revenue, and/or profit
associated with weather disruption of an event• Rain is the most common peril insured but policies can also be
written for snow, temperature, wind, hurricane or lightning• Rain coverage is generally written with a coverage trigger of
rainfall during a set timeframe in hours and common rain increments are .10, .20, .25, .50, .75 or 1 inch
• The lower the selected rain increment the higher the cost of coverage
• Premium rule of thumb is 5% of coverage limit in the middle of the rain increment spectrum
• Coverage must be bound at least 7 to 10 days in advance and most policies have a $500 minimum premium
