Did you know that every insurance company has a rigorous process for evaluating risk at our campuses?
Loss control inspectors visit UBC to assess potential hazards that could lead to claims—whether it’s risks to people, property, or research. These evaluations cover everything from fire safety and building security to equipment maintenance and workplace training, helping us strengthen our safety culture and refine our risk mitigation practices.
This thorough process doesn’t just ensure compliance—it helps us improve. By identifying potential risks, offering expert recommendations, and reinforcing our commitment to safety, these inspections provide valuable insights that keep UBC a step ahead. And thanks to the dedication of our faculty and staff, our insurer has given us a top-tier rating: UBC is Best in Class!
Of course, this recognition wouldn’t be possible without the hard work of many individuals who go above and beyond to uphold our safety and risk management standards. Whether working behind the scenes or leading the charge, their efforts make a difference, and we are deeply grateful.
A huge thank you to everyone in the VPFO and across UBC involved in this process.
