RECOMMENDATION: That the Finance Committee: 1. Receive the Annual Report of the City's Workers' Compensation Claims and Costs for Fiscal Year 2017/18; 2. Provide input; and 3. Recommend that City Council approve the Annual Report of the City's Workers' Compensation Claims and Costs for Fiscal Year 2017/18. BACKGROUND: This is the fourth report on the City's Workers' Compensation claims. Preceding this report is a financial overview of the Workers' Compensation and General Liability Funds. Accompanying is a report on the General Liability claims and program improvements. The Workers' Compensation claims reports are provided on an annual basis, and present a snapshot of the claims received, processed, closed, litigated or otherwise handled over a twelve- month period. A financial overview will always accompany the reports. In addition to the summary annual report presented to the Finance Committee and the City Council, all City departments review their open claims on a monthly basis. On a quarterly basis, the City Manager's Office and the City Attorney's Office meet with Finance (on the General Liability claims) and Human Resources (on the Workers Compensation claims) to review patterns and discuss any changes to policies or management actions.
