This webinar will review common processes associated with completing facility loss control evaluations.  This includes how  facility occupancies are determined, how hazardous operations are rated and subsequently how  assessments are made as to the types of fire protection needed to adequately protect those occupancies.  All of this ties into how the commercial insurance policy is underwritten and the cost of the coverages.
