Building Services formed its Risk Management
Department at its corporate headquarters
in 2003, and is dedicated to managing our
insurance programs, claims and safety services
to our clients as well as to our workers.
With approximately 500 workers performing
window cleaning, waterproofing and restoration
services every day, risk management is of
paramount importance to us. We take great
pride in our exceptional work history and
have one of the lowest ratios of incidents
at our job sites in the industry. All of
this has afforded us the opportunity to
provide for our clients insurance carriers
with ratings of A++ by A.M. Best. We have
one of the most comprehensive insurance
packages available today. In addition to
the statutory required workers compensation
insurance, Valcourt provides excess liability
insurance coverage with aggregate limits
of $11,000,000. We also carry mold and pollution
coverage as well as Care, Custody, and Control
as additional insurances not usually covered
under most standard insurance packages.
With Valcourt Building Services’
size and experience, we can easily take
on any job within our areas of competence
from bonded multimillion dollar restoration
contracts to the smallest window cleaning
job. Our diverse geographic locations permit
us to serve customers who have multiple
facilities in different locations.
Valcourt
has a drug free workplace with pre-employment
screening and random testing, and is very
active in maintaining and advancing this
initiative throughout the industry. We also
certify the drivers of our vehicles by completing
a thorough background check, and have safety
decals on our vehicles so the general public
can report on our drivers while they are
in the field. We also equip all field vehicles
with Global Positioning System (GPS).
Our Regional Safety Managers, unique to
our industry, were hired as safety professionals.
It is their responsibility to ensure that
our safety programs are operating as designed
in each of our branches.
Safety in our industry requires hard work
and an ongoing investment, and we believe
it’s worth every penny.
