Invites Insurers to Sit Down and Discuss Ways to Reduce
Accident Exposure and Lower Premiums |
On July
28, 2003, TCA's president and chairman invited the presidents
of two insurance associations to sit down "to identify,
discuss and agree upon practical and cost-effective ways
to reduce accident exposure and insurance costs on a
national basis." TCA's letter stressed that a "meaningful,
on-going and mutually beneficial dialogue" between
the trucking and insurance industries is very much needed
and long overdue. Click

Convention workshop "Your Insurance Company -
Is It Shared Risk or Is Your Company Doing the Full Monty?"
explores what steps can be taken to keep your insurance
under control through better risk management. |
