Tools Available to Fight Workers’ Comp Fraud in Your Workplace

ICW Group is once again a proud participant in International Fraud Awareness Week, a week dedicated to spreading public awareness surrounding the topic of fraud and what we can all do to defend against its many forms. Established by the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE), this week-long campaign encourages business leaders and employees to proactively take steps to minimize the impact of fraud by promoting anti-fraud awareness and education.

ICW Group’s Special Investigations Unit partners with workers’ comp policyholders to help them detect, deter and defeat fraudulent claims. During International Fraud Awareness Week, November 14-19, we will conduct the seventh installment of our Work Comp Fraud: Spot It & Stop It webinar training series. You can register now for the live presentation, which will take place Thursday, November 17.

We will also feature anti-fraud tools and information on our social feeds, so follow us on TwitterLinkedIn, and Facebook. Be sure to check out our library of anti-fraud resources available at our Policyholder Center.
