TAKE CONTROL RISK UNDER ONE ROOF

Risk Services & ONE

Managing risk on behalf of our clients

Our role as risk management solution providers means working with each of our clients to identify, assess and manage their unique set of complex risks. Our objective is to allow our clients to operate efficiently and effectively, with full peace of mind.

Failing to handle risk appropriately can have serious and long-lasting consequences, such as financial loss and penalties, damage to reputation and the possibility of criminal charges for directors. The law regarding risk is constantly being updated and amended, and our team of risk specialists will ensure that your organisation remains compliant at all times.

Fully-trained experts

Because risk management is so critical for every business and charity, it’s essential to our clients that all our staff are fully-trained and experienced in their field. We take your legal and regulatory responsibilities as seriously as our own.

Our specialist risk services

When disaster strikes, you need to be back up on your feet as fast as possible—this is where Disaster Management & Business Continuity Planning come into play.

Company directors are required by law to act in the best interests of their companies at all times. This is something that our risk specialists understand and we’ll treat your obligations seriously and with respect.

With help from our experienced team, your organisation will be able to:

  • assess the continuity risks you face
  • develop contingency plans for every scenario that could disrupt your ability to operate
  • create an online crisis store of plans, contact lists and resources
  • simulate scenarios to test your plan

If a crisis hits, you’ll have all the tools you need to manage it effectively, communicate with your staff and maintain a full audit trail of incidents.

Support when and where you need it

Our risk specialists offer clients a comprehensive range of online and offline support. Straight away you’ll have access to our Business Continuity software, available wherever and whenever you need it. It’s ISP 22301 compliant and will quickly get you back on your feet. And if you need to talk with an expert, one of our consultants will be ready to assist you.

Surviving a major discontinuity

We recommend that all our clients invest in a professionally-prepared strategic business continuity plan. We know from experience that this provides the best chance of surviving a major business discontinuity.

Studies show that 80% of organisations which follow this strategy survive, against only 20% which don’t. For organisations that suffer a significant data loss, there’s only a 10% chance of survival after two years.

However, according to the 2012 Chartered Management Institute report ‘Planning for the Worst’, 39% of businesses still don’t have a continuity plan in place. And talking to organisations which had activated their business continuity plan within the previous year, 81% of managers said their plan had been effective in reducing disruption.

While HR & Employment Law can appear complex and confusing to our clients, our experts will offer guidance. When the laws change, we’ll help you to respond quickly and effectively.

Our specialist team understands the considerable financial and reputation risks that can arise when HR & Employment Law issues are mishandled. For example, employees can claim up to £74,200 for unfair dismissal, and there is no cap at all on discrimination case pay-outs.

Excellent legal advice

To ensure that our clients get the best and most up-to-date legal advice, we work closely with leading law firm rradar. Together, we’ll provide you with the day-to-day support you need so you’ll never left exposed by changes to regulations. We distribute frequent bulletins and updates to ensure you know what you need to do to remain compliant.

Online and offline support

Our HR & Employment Law web pages comprise a valuable resource of advice and easy-to-download templates. We’re also available by phone or by email to discuss any questions that might arise—and we operate a dedicated 24/7 hotline for emergencies. We can also provide onsite consultancy services when required.

Every day, UK insurers pay out approximately £3.4 million in commercial property claims.

These pay outs cover a variety of causes from arson and electrical fault fires to weather and flood-related claims due to our changing weather patterns.

Having to make a claim can affect your organisation in different ways. A minor loss can tie up your staff and resources for an inordinate amount of time, while a major loss could jeopardise your organisation’s whole future. Whatever the type of property loss involved, we know it’s always unwelcome and comes at a cost. For this reason, an increasing number of our business and charity clients are turning to our specialist Property Loss Control service.

How we can help

Our experienced team will work with you to minimise your property risk exposure to reduce or remove property losses entirely. If you do suffer a loss, we’ll handle the claims quickly and efficiently on your behalf.

We can help you with a full range of property loss protection services. You may just want simple and inexpensive guidance to good housekeeping, or your needs may be more complex. But whatever your requirements are, our team of experts will be ready to help. For example, we can give you advice regarding new construction materials or techniques.

All of these options are available as standalone services. However, an increasing number of our clients are choosing to manage their risk through ‘ONE’, our comprehensive integrated risk solution.

Hettle Andrews ONE: one integrated solution to all your risks.

Hettle Andrews ONE is a comprehensive subscription service that incorporates the handling of all of your risk management and insurance needs. By subscribing to ONE, you’ll have your entire risk cycle covered and you’ll enjoy an ongoing range of financial and operational benefits.

With the unique ability to meet the needs of each and every client, Hettle Andrews ONE is hard to beat, but easy to subscribe to. It brings all your insurance and risk assessment services together under one roof to be managed by specialists who understand your sector. You stay in control and benefit from the cost effective premiums we’re able to offer.

You have our support in three distinct ways:

As a chartered insurance broker, we work to the very highest standards of professional practice. We achieve accurate insurance programme design and offer highly-competitive premiums.

As a risk management consultancy, we provide consultancy support in property and business interruption, health & safety planning, business continuity planning and HR consultancy.

Hettle Andrews ONE is the most effective way to utilise our services. Under the ONE umbrella, we combine our specialist knowledge as both insurance broker and risk consultant to provide you with one seamless solution. The benefits to this approach are huge: it means that your insurers are actively engaged with your risk management strategy—and actively reward clients by contributing an annual bursary to their risk service costs. Clients are also rewarded for commitment with premium reductions and low claims rebates.

ONE provides a single point of entry to all your risk services, achieving significant economies over the traditional model of buying these services separately.

Unique insurer bursary

Based on the evidence of clients already enrolled in ONE, we estimate that it could save your organisation at least 20 percent of your current costs. Insurers value ONE so highly that they’ll pay 50 percent of your annual fee through a unique bursary. In addition, you don’t pay VAT on your ONE subscription, which is another key reason why more and more charities are choosing the ONE integrated solution.

Confidence through compliance

With ONE, your organisation can rest assured that it will be up-to-date on and compliant with all the latest changes to rules and regulations. If you have questions, our team is on hand and you can access our trusted network of experts and consultants through a single point of contact.
