Put on Your Risk Management Grant Thinking Caps

It’s almost a real-life game of Clue, with PDRMA member employees putting on their thinking caps to detect possible risks and solutions — and earn up to $2,500 for their solutions! 

All it takes are observational skills, creativity and an entry form to submit your idea into the running for a 2023 Risk Management grant or recognition award. But don't wait too long, as the deadline to enter is Friday, Sept. 1.  

"You don’t have to be Magnum P.I. or Sherlock Holmes to find a risk management grant opportunity,” points out Lindsey Robertson, Risk Management Consultant.

Robertson notes that a winning solution could be right under your nose. “It might be as simple as a small piece of equipment that makes a job task safer or something that helps your agency accomplish an action step of your SMART Goals or annual activities. Even a simple solution is worth submitting for a chance to receive $500 to $2,500.”
