Canadian winters are some of the harshest around with extreme cold, blizzards, accumulated snow, and ice. As business owners, it’s important that your members maintain their property, their vehicle, and company fleet to help protect the safety of others.

To help your members prevent potential damages and losses this winter, we’ve developed risk management resources on key areas to look out for on their property such as snow-covered roofs, parking lots, and sidewalks, as well as in their vehicles before someone gets behind the wheel.

• Winter maintenance for businesses
• 7 tips on vehicle preventative maintenance for winter

We encourage you to share these resources with your members, and we kindly ask that you forward us a copy of whatever you’re able to share with them for our records.
