OSHA Recordkeeping Season: Why It Matters More Than a Deadline

OSHA Recordkeeping Season: Why It Matters More Than a Deadline OSHA recordkeeping season is more than a compliance deadline. When approached strategically, it becomes a meaningful tool for improving safety outcomes, controlling claim costs, and strengthening an organization’s overall risk profile. For leadership, it also serves as a barometer of how effectively workplace risk is being managed throughout the year. Updated guidance from OSHA (https://www.osha.gov/recordkeeping)  outlines the annual recordkeeping obligations applicable to most organizations with 11 or more employees. Employers are required to maintain injury and illness records using the following forms: Certain employers are also required to submit this information electronically to OSHA by March 2nd.

LOOKING AHEAD: RISK, RESILIENCE & READINESS

LOOKING AHEAD: RISK, RESILIENCE & READINESS A Year-End Message from the President of The ALS Group As we close out another year and look forward to 2026, I want to thank our clients, colleagues, and friends for the trust you place in The ALS Group.  In an environment defined by uncertainty, volatility, and rapid change, that trust is never taken lightly. This past year reinforced a lesson we see repeatedly: risk is rarely created by a single event – it is created by blind spots.   Whether driven by natural catastrophes, supply-chain disruptions, litigation trends, cyber incidents, labor shortages, or evolving contractual obligations, organizations are increasingly impacted not by what they

From Privacy to Risk: Navigating the CCPA’s New Risk Assessment Requirement

From Privacy to Risk: Navigating the CCPA’s New Risk Assessment Requirement A recent Troutman Pepper Locke article, “Analyzing the CCPA’s New Risk Assessment Requirement,” underscores a growing regulatory focus on proactive privacy risk management. Under updated CCPA regulations effective in 2026, businesses engaging in higher-risk data processing—such as handling sensitive personal information, selling or sharing data, or using automated decision-making—must conduct formal privacy risk assessments. From a compliance and enterprise risk perspective, these requirements elevate data governance, documentation, and internal controls from best practices to regulatory necessities. Organizations that integrate privacy risk assessments into their broader risk management framework will be better positioned to manage regulatory exposure, demonstrate due diligence,

Silent Cyber – Buyer Beware When Renewing Property Policies

The Growing Risk of Uninsured Loss As properties become more connected, Silent Cyber has emerged as a dangerous blind spot. Cyber-related events — hacks, malware, or system failures — are increasingly excluded from Property policies, leaving even physical damage uninsured. Insurers are rapidly standardizing broad cyber exclusions (LMA5400, CP 10 75, CP 10 76), and Liability policies are tightening too. What looks like routine policy language could leave owners and managers with massive out-of-pocket losses. Download the full whitepaper to learn how insurers are reshaping coverage — and what steps you can take now to protect against Silent Cyber exposures.
