Insurance and Risk Management

Financial risk managers and insurers have an ever-increasing number of disruptions to consider as they protect the economic value of their investments and preserve business continuity. New risk exposures may  take many forms, including operational, credit, market, volatility, legal, and reputational risks. UL Solutions can help firms implement robust resiliency programs to identify and monitor potential risks before they become serious disruptors. Early detection enables more robust analysis, cost-effective management and mitigation options as well as peace-of-mind preparedness.

Facility safety

Just as it’s important to ensure buildings and industrial facilities are structurally sound, it’s also important to ensure the people using these investments are secure in terms of perspectives of process as well as appropriate interactions.

UL Solutions' EHS Advisory Services team partners with insurers and risk management companies to provide trusted subject matter expertise, support for organizational change, execution of practical action plans and implementation of measurable and lasting improvements across an organization’s global operations. Our compliance management software solutions streamline data management and are relied upon to support occupational health initiatives in critical areas such as regulatory compliance and surveillance programs.

We also offer multi-module software packages that feature detailed tracking and reporting tools, plus user-friendly information management capabilities. This data visualization helps maximize consistency and accuracy, identify problem areas and risks, reduce workplace injuries, and maintain compliance. Our learning management system (LMS) software proactively helps facility employees learn how to safely perform their assigned functions, and includes built-in comprehensive event reporting, as well as investigation and performance management tools that can be utilized as employee training is being conducted.

Supplier assessments and alternate sourcing
