RISK MANAGEMENT ANNUAL REPORT
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Presented herein is the Maricopa County Risk Management Annual Report for the fiscal year
July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2013.
This report contains summaries of the fiscal year’s losses and costs for Maricopa County’s (County)
auto liability, auto physical damage, general liability, medical malpractice, property damage,
workers’ compensation, professional liability, environmental liability, environmental property
damage and unemployment exposures. This report, along with ongoing quarterly reports to County
departments during the year, are intended to assist departments in recognizing the nature and extent
of their losses to implement and improve their loss control and prevention programs.
Structure and Mission
As of June 30, 2013, the Risk Management Department (Department) completed its 32nd year
administering the County’s self-insurance program. Risk Management’s mission is to provide
claims management, safety and loss control consultations and training, environmental consultations
and insurance coverage services to Maricopa County departments, districts, and Trust members so
they can reduce or eliminate loss. The vision is to be recognized as a leader in Risk Management,
and relied upon for a County-wide risk management philosophy and culture. Risk Management’s
primary activities are:



Risk consulting
Insurance procurement above self-insured retention levels
Maricopa County Self-Insured Risk Trust Fund management and financing
Administration and monitoring of third party administrators adjusting
workers’ compensation and unemployment claims
Investigation and disposition of casualty and property claims and lawsuits
Safety training, reporting, and compliance
Loss control programs
Environmental investigation, remediation, and reporting
Contractual indemnification and insurance requirement language standards and review.

The Department is divided into four operating divisions: Claims, Safety, Environmental, and
Administration. Highlights for each division are included herein. The Department strives to
accomplish its mission with assistance and direction from the Maricopa County Board of
Supervisors, the Maricopa County Self-Insured Risk Trust Fund Board of Trustees, and the County
Manager. The Director of Risk Management reports to the County Manager.

I-1

Self-Insured Trust Fund
Arizona Revised Statute (ARS) § 11-981 authorizes the County to self-insure, or procure insurance
from any insurer authorized by the State of Arizona Department of Insurance, or both. Insurance
(defined in Title 20 ARS) includes, but is not limited to: auto liability, auto physical damage,
general liability, medical malpractice, property, workers’ compensation, professional liability,
environmental liability, environmental property damage and unemployment insurance.
Upon establishment of the self-insurance program, the County is required to designate a Risk Trust
Administrator (Director, Risk Management), and establish a trust. The Risk Trust is funded by an
allocation of funds from General Fund and Non-General Fund departments and Special Districts, or
such other funding techniques permitted by State statute and authorized by the Risk Trust’s Board
of Trustees.
A Board of Trustees assists Risk Management to coordinate the Risk Trust’s activities and affairs.
Trustees, United States citizens and residents of Maricopa County, are appointed by the Maricopa
County Board of Supervisors (BOS) and the County Manager. During Fiscal Year FY12-13, the
following individuals were members of the Board of Trustees:

FY12-13 Results

During the three year period of FY10-11 through FY12-13, the Risk Trust’s assets decreased
$26,415,081, or 41.5% from $63,644,422 to $37,229,341. During the same period, the Trust’s
liabilities decreased $54,829,700, or 41.09%, from $133,427,607 to $78,597,907. The deficit in
Risk Trust net assets is a result of a spend down of the Risk Trust fund in fiscal years when user
departments were only charged for administrative costs even though claims and insurance continued
to be paid by Risk Management on behalf of user departments.
There was significant claim activity that occurred in FY12-13. The County had a substantial claim
payment for a claim that occurred in 1993 related to a dam break that has been in litigation for
twenty years. The amount of the claim payment was $23.7 million with the Flood Control District
paying $19.1 million and the Risk Trust paying $4.6 million. In addition, the Maricopa County
Special Health Care District separated from Maricopa County and the District’s open claims
liability of $15,971,908 was transferred to the Special Health Care District.

Cost of Risk
Cost of Risk is a comparison of the Risk Management program and costs of claims and claims
related expenses to the County’s overall expenditures or budget in the fiscal year. The effectiveness
of a risk management program can be reflected in this comparison since the cost of a risk
management program includes paid claims (amounts paid in the fiscal year without regard to the
year the claim arose), insurance premiums, safety and loss control programs, and operational and
administrative expenses, against the total County's expenditures or budget. For FY10-11, the Cost of
Risk was 1.00%, and increased in FY12-13 to 2.60%. Risk Management’s commitment is to
maintain this measure at or below 2%. However, FY12-13 had a payment for a very large claim
which created much higher Risk Management costs than in prior years.

CLAIMS
DIVISION

Claims Division

CLAIMS DIVISION
The Risk Management Claims Division is staffed with two senior adjusters, two adjusters, and
three administrative employees. The Division is committed to reducing Maricopa County’s cost
of risk through prudent claim and litigation management arising from the County’s employee,
auto, property and liability exposures.
The Division also manages the County’s workers’
compensation and unemployment claims through two third-party claim administrators.
Claims and lawsuits are investigated, evaluated and then either denied or resolved via litigation
or settlement. Litigated matters are assigned to either in-house counsel within the County
Attorney’s Office or outside counsel pursuant to contract. Thereafter, the Division manages the
assigned attorneys to minimize expense and obtain expeditious and fair resolutions.
The Division also manages the Subsequent Remedial Measures Program, the purpose and intent
of which is to assist departments in (1) identifying the root cause(s) of events which have
precipitated a Notice of Claim and/or lawsuit against Maricopa County and its employees, agents
and volunteers, and (2) formulating a subsequent remedial measures plan designed to mitigate
future claims and/or lawsuits arising out of the same or substantially similar root cause(s).
The Division also manages the Roundtable Program for high exposure and other sensitive
claims. This program provides the Division, the defendant departments and employees, agents
and volunteers, and defense counsel with the formulation and critical review of litigation tactics,
strategies, and related evidentiary issues.
Fiscal Year 12-13 Summary
In Fiscal Year (FY) 12-13, the Division managed 1,708 new workers’ compensation, auto
liability, auto physical damage, general liability, environmental liability, environmental property
damage, professional liability, medical malpractice, and property claims, a decrease of 861
claims, which is a 33% decrease from FY11-12.

For all such claims and lawsuits, the Division paid $2,320,460, a decrease of $480,349, which is
a decrease of 17% from FY11-12.
PAYMENTS MADE BY FY

The Division also provided the following services to County departments and districts:


Management of the County’s third-party workers’ compensation claim administrator that
adjusts employee workers’ compensation claims.
In FY12-13, 921 new workers’
compensation claims were re-opened or filed by County employees, a decrease of 522, which
is a decrease of 36% from FY11-12. In addition to claim adjusting, Risk Management’s
vendors conduct bill/invoice reviews and apply available discounts when injured County
employees utilize a Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) (a medical services network). In
FY12-13, the County realized a net savings of $2,764,098, which equates to a 48% savings
from billed charges.

Safety Division

SAFETY
DIVISION

SAFETY DIVISION
The focus of the Risk Management Safety Division is collaborating with other departments
County-wide to innovatively develop safety programs to assist in meeting strategic goals. Risk
mitigation, loss reduction and compliance are achieved by interaction with departments utilizing
a variety of proven safety strategies reducing negative outcomes and increasing productivity. Our
goal is to mitigate exposures thus minimizing preventable injuries and accidents. Our road map
to success is a four-step process:
1. Obtain management’s support of County safety policies.
2. Train employees in safe work practices and safety/hazard awareness and identification.
3. Identify potential risks and develop safer, less risky alternatives to accomplish the task or
process.
4. Maintain an effective, comprehensive and compliant accident/incident control program.
This four-step process and the cooperation of the various departments have been instrumental in
reducing injuries and vehicle accidents. Two examples of continually improving departmental
safety performance are the Injury Incident Rate and Vehicle Collision Claims as noted below.
In FY2013, workers’ compensation data realized an overall decrease of 45 recordable injuries.
There were 279 injuries in FY2013 versus 324 injuries in FY2012. The injury incident rate has
been in a steady decline over the past three years. The County’s overall rate reduction from
FY2011 to FY2013 was 0.17 with a total injury severity (cost) reduction of $398,855.40, which
is FY12, $1,818,221.40 minus FY13, $1,419,366.00.

III-1

This previous fiscal year also realized an overall decrease of 24 vehicle collision claims, (236
vehicle collisions in FY2013 versus 260 vehicle collisions in FY2012). The collision incident
rate has maintained a steady decline over the past three years. The County’s overall vehicle
collision incident rate reduction from FY2011 to FY2013 was 3.74.

The Risk Management Safety Division offers a total solution for safety awareness and safety
compliance training. We will continue partnering with all County departments to reduce the
injury incident rate and collision incident rate utilizing the following Safety strategies:
Risk Management Safety Training


SafeStart: In 2013 the Risk Management Safety/Environmental Divisions,
qualified SafeStart Instructors, completed first phase training for 388 employees
from both Flood Control and MCDOT.



Road Builder: The Maricopa County and Gateway Community College’s Road
Builder Heavy Equipment Certification Program graduated three (3) County
employees in 2013. This includes one student who also completed his AS degree
in Heavy Equipment Operation. Since its inception, 22 County employees have
graduated from this program.

Maricopa County Vehicle & Equipment Use Program (VUP): The job of keeping hundreds
of County employees trained, qualified and authorized on over 40 types of equipment is a
difficult task. County Departments such as Maricopa County Department of Transportation
(MCDOT), Flood Control District, Waste Resources and Recycling Management and Maricopa
III-2

County Sheriff’s Office have joined together with the Safety Division to develop and implement
a Vehicle Use Permit (VUP) program to manage this training.
On-Site Safety Training Programs: Due to staffing issues, not all departments can send
employees to off-site training, thus the Safety Division provides training at employee worksites
focused on the needs of the department. This training can be task or program specific or targeted
to re-educate employees in safe procedures. Targeted training often addresses an increase in
accidents or near misses.
Examples of targeted training include:




Personal Protective Equipment--unique to more hazardous activities, such as fall
protection.
Heat Stress Awareness--for employees working outside during summer months.
Safe Lifting and Back Injury Prevention.

Examples of routine training offered at multiple locations to accommodate the scheduling needs
of departments include:






Defensive Driving
Hazard Communication
Bloodborne Pathogen Awareness
Fire Extinguisher Awareness and Emergency Evacuation
CPR and First Aid

Provisions for departments to provide their own training due to 24-hour operations are:




Train-the-Trainer programs for Animal Care and Control Department
Slips, Trips and Falls
Hazard Communication

Commercial Driver’s License (CDL):
Several County employees are required to drive
commercial vehicles to perform their duties at the County. These employees require specialized
training and a CDL from Motor Vehicles to drive these vehicles. In order to minimize
department down time, the Safety Division’s Fleet Safety Consultant provides on-site programs.
These include:




Providing a three (3) day training program to prepare employees to take the written
examination required to obtain a CDL from the MVD.
Serving as a third party tester for MVD. The Fleet Safety Consultant provides
approved and recognized testing services as required by the State for employees, so
that they do not have to go back to MVD for the hands-on testing.
Providing all CDL annual training to departments requiring CDL drivers.

III-3

For FY2013, we conducted 6 classes for 30 new CDL applicants, 32 refresher classes for 140
current CDL County employees, 8 Drug & Alcohol classes for 280 CDL County employees and
23 individual State of Arizona CDL tests with a 100% pass completion.
Off-Site Safety Training: Requires an off-site location due to the type of training.


Welding Safety Training and Certification -- All County departments that have
cutting and welding activities require training to comply with OSHA and ANSI safety
requirements. Training and certification is administered by an outside contractor.



Collision Avoidance Driving Safety -- This course is two hours of classroom driver
safety and a one-hour field exercise. Employees operate vehicles through a course
designed to help them become more efficient at backing, parking lot maneuvering,
lane changes, and evasive maneuvers. The Safety Division also instructs various
other driver safety classes such as Utility Truck, Trailer Towing Safety and Defensive
Driving. For FY2013, we conducted 21 Collision Avoidance classes consisting of
168 County employees.



Defensive Driving Training – This course is required training in order to obtain a
Vehicle Use Permit (VUP) and is often a recommendation for drivers who have been
involved in a “Preventable” vehicle collision. For FY2013, we conducted 89 DDC
classes and trained 2,870 County employees. County employees log more than 26
million miles annually and the continued decline in the number of preventable vehicle
collisions is testament to the overall success of this training program.



Vehicle and Equipment Use Permit – This is based on policy A2310 and Risk
Management Safety, acting as the County Manager’s Designee, processes all
employee requests to operate vehicles and equipment.
For FY2013, the Safety
department processed 4,200 VUP applications.



CPR and First Aid - CPR and First Aid are a requirement for many positions in the
County. These two courses will fulfill many of these job requirements. CPR is a skill
that one never knows when they will need it, and will never know what a difference it
can make until it is used.
First aid is the immediate care given to an injured or
suddenly ill person. It consists only of furnishing temporary assistance until
competent medical care, if needed, is obtained or until the chance for recovery
without medical care is assured. In FY2013, the Safety Division conducted 12 CPR
and 12 First Aid classes and trained more than 325 employees.

Safety Fair and Safety Bowl: The 2013 Safety Fair was a great success. Ninety-three (93)
safety classes were taught with 2,528 County employees attending over the course of 3.5 days.
Facilities Management won the Safety Bowl competition. Waste Resources and Recycling
Management won the Big Dig.
Additional Safety Strategies: The Safety Division uses a wide variety of recognized safety
program techniques in addition to training to keep County employees safe. These include:

Safety Committees
Job Safety Analysis
Accident investigations with corrective actions designed to minimize reoccurrence of
accidents.
Job observations to identify unsafe conditions.

As Maricopa County continues developing safety management systems, it is necessary that each
level of management take a proactive role in safety improvement. Management commitment,
front-line supervision and accountability are the keys to sustain successful safety processes and
reduce unsafe work practices.

III-5

Environmental Division

ENVIRONMENTAL
DIVISION

ENVIRONMENTAL DIVISION
The Environmental Division of Risk Management conducts remedial investigations and takes
action to minimize County environmental liability as determined by law, regulation, statute,
and/or court order. The Division provides leadership in the area of pollution prevention and
environmental management, and has developed a proactive assessment and action process that
mitigates environmental liabilities, saving the County in the cost of remedial action and
regulatory penalties. Possible environmental liability costs of known sites have been reduced
from previous estimates of over $500 million for FY95-96, to approximately $8,977,180 for
FY12-13.
This fiscal year the Division:


Continued to cooperate with Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) in
conducting site characterization of groundwater contamination at the Cave Creek
Landfill. An Additional Characterization Work Plan was prepared and submitted to
ADEQ in November 2012, outlining the remaining work to be performed at the site.
Three new groundwater / multi-level soil vapor wells were installed.
 Soil contamination discovered during demolition of the Durango Vehicle Wash Facility
was investigated and characterized. A risk assessment was conducted and the site was
deemed closed.
 Continued to participate with the Hassayampa Steering Committee in working towards
the remediation of the Hassayampa Superfund Site.
 Completed in-house assessments and remedial oversight for industrial hygiene, indoor air
quality, microbial contamination, asbestos and lead paint projects. Over 130 projects
were opened, completed and closed in FY 12-13. Since the in-house service began in
2006, it continues to represent a direct savings to the County by avoiding 3 rd party
consultant fees in the conservative range of $150,000 - $200,000 annually.
 Rolled out new Hazard Communication Training to comply with Occupational, Safety
and Health Administration’s (OSHA) recent Globally Harmonized System (GHS)
amendments. Training has included: approximately 10 “train-the-trainer” classes, nearly
35 classroom sessions and 15 live webinars. The training schedule for 2014 is complete
with monthly classroom sessions and monthly live webinars.
 Conducted inspections of County owned and maintained drywells. Recommendations
were turned over to Facilities Maintenance for required repairs and for best practices
repairs. These repairs help reduce regulatory liability and general liability for the County.
Several drywells were discovered that were not previously inventoried or inspected.
 Assisted the Medical Examiner’s Office with the packaging and disposal of 8,400 jars
containing human tissue and formalin (aqueous formaldehyde). Recommendations
resulted in a significant reduction in possible employee exposures and saved over 100
employee labor hours.
 Assisted Facilities Management in the control, management and disposal of 17 radiation
storage containers dug up at one of their projects. Luckily, the material was long past its
half-life and no radiation hazards were detected.
 Assisted Facilities Management, Superior Courts, Real Estate, Maricopa County Sheriff’s
Office (MCSO), Maricopa County Department of Transportation (MCDOT), Juvenile
and Adult Probation, Flood Control District, Legal Defender, Environmental Services,

Equipment Services, Emergency Management, Office of Enterprise Technology ( OET),
Maricopa County Attorney’s Office, Assessor, Agricultural Exchange, Women, Infants
and Children (WIC), Waste Resources and Recycling, Public Health, Medical Examiner,
Parks, Equipment Services and the Library District in environmental studies, hazardous
waste reviews and clean-ups, and conducting indoor air quality review, asbestos and lead
paint surveys.
Continued to provide sound environmental compliance information to requesting
departments.

The Division recognizes that environmental risks are capable of being managed through risk
control and prevention measures. These measures include separation of hazardous materials,
effective pollution prevention and loss control techniques, redundant controls and safety
mechanisms, double and triple containment of tanks and flow tubes, emergency response plans,
and effective training of employees. The Division will continue to seek to implement these
measures.

Administrative Division

ADMINISTRATIVE
DIVISION

ADMINISTRATIVE DIVISION
The Administrative Division is responsible for procuring the insurance policies above the County’s
self-insured retention, providing certificates of insurance to County departments, preparing the
annual user charges for services, preparing the annual budget and financial statements for the Risk
Trust, and providing administrative support to the other divisions within the department. Included
in this report is a comparison of the assets and liabilities of the Risk Trust over a three-year period,
the trend of the current insurance market, a budget summary, and the financial statements through
fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.

During the FY10-11 through FY12-13 period, the Risk Trust’s assets decreased $26,415,081, or
41.5%, from $63,644,422 to $37,229,341. During the same period, the Trust’s liabilities decreased
$54,829,700, or 41.09%, from $133,427,607 to $78,597,907. The deficit in Risk Trust net assets is
a result of a spend down of the Risk Trust fund in fiscal years when user departments were only
charged for administrative costs even though claims and insurance continued to be paid by Risk
Management on behalf of user departments.
The Risk Trust began billing user departments for the full costs of claims and insurance and
administrative costs in FY99-00. On an annual basis, the Risk Trust funding plan calculates the
total Risk Management’s expenses for the fiscal year, the next year’s claims and claims related
expenses and other factors. The County does not fund the Risk Trust for all reserves; however, the
reserves are part of the liability calculation.
Insurance Policies
Risk Management continually analyzes insurance market trends. During 2013, we saw evidence
the market was firming for several lines of coverage. Workers’ Compensation insurance
experienced the most severe challenges through 2013 and we expect this to continue into 2014.
Management liability and employment practices premiums have also seen upward pressure. We
experienced mixed results in the Casualty lines with some reductions in price for well performing
accounts on a very selective basis. During the first half of 2013, most accounts saw renewals come
in with flat to single digit increases in premiums. Risk Management works closely with our
insurance broker to aggressively pursue reasonable insurance coverages to protect the County.

TOTALS
Notes:

1. Dollars paid listed above represents payments on claims by event date, not actual payment date, and does not include
RBNP or IBNR reserves. Due to lag time in resolution and payment of claims, the figures from FY10-11 give a truer
picture of the cost of these claims as they have had time to mature.
2. Number of claims represents the number of claims for the year in which the event occurred.
3. Amounts as valued on June 30, 2013, as reported by the RiskMaster system.
4. All dollar amounts are rounded to the nearest dollar. The totals are first derived from the non-rounded amounts then
rounded.
