Episode 60 Highlights\\xa0

My benefits buddy Colleen Huff returns for another session of carrier happenings. We talked about PPE payments (who is paying and how to apply the payments) and how some plans are relaxing frequency limitations in light of COVID-19. Have you noticed that managers are burning out? We have. We\\u2019re hearing and feeling it. How you train your new employees can make your life less stressful down the road. Don\\u2019t skip the onboarding process because you don\\u2019t have time - it will come back to bite you in the butt! Enjoy our incredibly nerdy insurance conversation!\\xa0

We cover:

  • Frequency Updates
  • PPE Updates and Colleen\\u2019s PPE Spreadsheet\\xa0
  • Hiring and Training Opportunities
  • Burnout and current challenges for managers
  • Sidebar: How we as managers can keep an eye out for child and elder abuse in our offices. We play an important role in identifying the patterns and signs.\\xa0
