Loss Control Techniques
The Importance of Loss Control
• Loss control is common sense
• An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of insurance

Loss Control Techniques
What is it?
• Defined: Intentional acts to modify the probability and/or severity of
losses
• These acts create the desired amount of risk at a desired time
• Loss control enables workers to focus on speculative risks and
creating value
• Loss control is done by internal workers and outsourced to experts
• Certain loss control projects may be mandated by regulations

Loss Control Techniques
Loss Control Theories
• Theories help risk managers be more effective in creating and
implementing loss control programs
• The Domino Theory of Accident Causation - H.W. Heinrich
•A sequence of five conditions or events resulting in loss
•Focus on the 3rd: modify the unsafe acts or conditions
• General Methods of Control – Military research
•Focus on creating a logical process to modify hazards
• Engineering Approach – e.g.: Wm. Haddon’s release of energy
•Focus on modifying physical systems to reduce hazards
• Technique of Operations Review – Weaver & Petersen
•Focus on motivating management to create safe environments

Loss Control Theories
• Theories help risk managers be more effective in creating and
implementing loss control programs
• System Safety Approach – All processes occur within a system.
• Focus on interaction of people, processes, machines, & mgmt
• Behavior Modification - The most cost effective tool
Supplement
• System Safety Approach – application of life cycle theory
• enables viewing hazardous process or condition as part of a
larger system
• system can be the entire enterprise or the society in which the
enterprise exists

Loss Control Techniques
The Five-step Process

a. Planning loss control activities
Understanding the organizations goals

(risk philosophy: risk tolerance, risk appetite)

The Five-step Process
2. Risk (loss) Analysis
Understanding the hazards (factors) that increase the likelihood
and/or impact of the losses.
3. Loss control Solution Analysis
a. Identify all the options available
b. Measure the quantitative impacts of loss control activities
Effects on frequency
Effects on values (impact)
Effect on variability (risk)
NPV of the loss control activity (cost:benefit analysis)
c. Analyze the qualitative impacts
Effect on strategies
Effect on stakeholders
Effect on culture
