Success Story

Client: Victor's Flowers
 
Business Issue
In September of 2001, Victor's Flowers was unexpectedly inspected by OSHA. During the inspection, OSHA established numerous safety violations by the company and therefore assessed fines to Victor's Flowers totaling over $18,000.
 
The Solution
Victor's Flowers quickly contacted Applied Underwriters, requesting assistance to resolve the problems and to minimize the fines. Applied Underwriters' Loss Control department worked closely with the ownership of Victor's Flowers and with OSHA to resolve each violation. Having assessed the challenges faced, Applied Underwriter's knowledgeable team outlined the necessary steps required to correct the problems and submitted these recommendations to Victor's Flowers and to OSHA.
 
The Result
After extensive research by the Loss Control Department and based on the efficacy of the recommendations, OSHA agreed to reduce the fines assessed to Victor's Flowers by approximately $15,000. Applied Underwriters' integrated solution had provided Victor's Flowers with assistance and service far beyond the company's expectations, and in doing so, saved Victor's Flowers significant money and also created a system to improve the company's safety standards.
