On January 25th, Burns White hosted a Workers’ Compensation Seminar entitled Staying Ahead in 2018. The event, co-sponsored by Marsh & McLennan Companies, brought together a host of risk experts to discuss key insurance market developments and innovations. Topics ranged from the current opioid crisis, medical marijuana, and Medicare Set Asides, to pre-employment testing, Senate Bill 936, and wearable workplace technology.
“The seminar was a chance to bring together a variety of professionals to address some of the most pressing issues in Workers’ Compensation today,” said Scott Newman, chairman of Burns White’s Workers’ Compensation Practice Group. “The program was a great opportunity for area executives to share ideas, ask questions, and prepare for the workplace challenges that they’re facing.”
