Risk Management

Risk Management works continually to identify, reduce, transfer, and assume risk exposures for the Parish Government. Additionally, they work to retain risk through self insurance, participate in risk through various deductible policies, and transfer risk through various legal agreements and with insurance carriers. The Parish Government's coverages are broad in scope and cover most insurable exposures as previously stated.

Risk Management is also responsible for Group Benefits for our over 800 plus current and retired employees. This encompasses all benefits including future medical benefits for our retired employees. This program is administered through an outside administrator and the catastrophic risk is transferred to insurance carriers. Most of the program is self-funded which requires TPCG to accrue these liabilities on its balance sheet.
