Tryg Insurance & Woba

Reading time: 3 min.

Tryg Insurance is the largest workers’ compensation insurance company in Denmark and the second largest in the Nordics. Tryg today helps more than 80,000 business customers and 530,000 employees to make the working day safer by converting expert knowledge into simple and valuable insurances.

 

 

The Challenges

Tryg Insurance made their first contact with Woba at the beginning of 2019, where they made it clear what specific challenges they had experienced with their previous digital supplier of Health and Safety Risk Assessments (APV) to their customers.

Tryg wanted to offer their customers the statutory Health and Safety Risk Assessment, so that they could comply with the working environment legislation without much hassle. The problem was quite simply that the tool did not automate all legally required steps in the process, so customers had to spend a lot of time and effort to comply with the legislation.

1 out of the 5 steps in the Health and Safety Risk Assessment is that the Working Environment Authority requires companies to prepare and implement an action plan with a focus on improving the risk areas of the Health and Safety Risk Assessment results.

Part of the problem was that companies had to wait months to get their results in the form of reports – and when the reports finally arrived, they spent additional months translating their results into actionable measures. Tryg therefore became curious as to whether there was a digital tool that could make it easy and automatic to deliver all steps – and here they came across Woba.

 

 

The solution: Tryg + Woba

Tryg Insurance had for some time flirted with the idea of collaborating with a digital platform that could solve their Health and Safety Risk Assessment challenges. Tryg quickly found that Woba could do this, and shortly before Christmas in 2019, Tryg chose to enter into a strategic co-branding collaboration with the platform. Tryg chose Woba for several reasons, but the main reason for their final decision was:

We chose to enter into a strategic collaboration with Woba because it is a unique solution. It is our assessment that Woba is the only one who has incorporated their deep expertise in the field of occupational health and prevention into one simple and intuitive platform. This means that our customers i.a. can complete all Health and Safety Risk Assessment steps completely automatically

Jytte Adelmark, Director of Growth Center Health – Tryg Denmark

 

Tryg Insurance therefore chose to make Woba their primary Health and Safety Risk Assessment supplier for their customer base at the start of 2020. The strategic collaboration between Tryg and Woba will be launched in June 2020, where they will offer their customers to complete the statutory Health and Safety Risk Assessment, so that they can live 100 % up to the legal requirements in an easy and clear way.

 

 

What does the Woba solution consist of?

  • A complete statutory system for completing the Health and Safety Risk Assessment – completely automatically questionnaires for all industries and sectors.
  • Answering measurements on all devices: PC, tablet and via the Wobas smartphone app.
  • Employee access to own personal results, scores and e-learning tools to promote well-being and the working environment.
  • Manager access to Woba’s analysis tool (dashboard) with automatic results – both reports and comment analyzes can be viewed and downloaded across the entire company.
  • Manager access to the real-time Risk Map, where HR and all local managers can identify and act on health and safety risks for sickness absence with a simple login.
  • Manager access to automatic recommendations for action measures to prevent the Health and Safety Risk Assessment’s designated risk areas.
  • Gives HR, AMR and local managers the data insights to make targeted decisions to prevent workplace health issues – instead of relying on outdated data and intuition.
  • Make it easy for Tryg’s customers to collect, understand and act preventively on the Health and Safety Risk Assessment challenge before the damage has occurred.

Furthermore, the Woba team has succeeded in making it easy for companies to collect all their important employee data on the health, safety and well-being level in one complete system. This enables both us and our customers to gain the data insights to be able to prevent costly staff turnover and sick leave in real time, before the damage has occurred

Look out for more results from this important collaboration in the coming year.

WTW & Woba

Companies now know well that when they invest DKK 1 in the working environment, they get DKK 2 back. Despite this fact, no tools have yet been able to measure this effect.

Woba, on the other hand, gives us access to a comprehensive risk assessment system and thus a long-awaited real-time overview of our customers’ known and unknown risks within the working environment. This helps us to assist with the best possible preventive advice based on current data insights. The Woba system also helps our customers to measure the effect of their implemented action plans on, for example, the level of well-being and sickness absence. In this way, our customers gain new and very concrete knowledge of where their risk areas are, what they should do about them and the effect of their time and efforts

Willis Tower Watson

Willis Towers Watson (WTW) was founded in 1828 and is today a world-leading global advisory and brokerage firm. WTW is driven by a central vision to help their customers identify risks, so that the company can best prevent human losses and at the same time get the best conditions for creating growth and success. In other words – WTW helps clients around the world turn risk into business growth.

 

The Challenges

In June 2018, WTW first contacted Woba. WTW was looking for a digital tool that could give their customers the opportunity to measure the temperature of their risks in the working environment and at the same time give WTW access to a digital overview of their customers’ risk areas. After many months of negotiation, WTW and Woba suddenly found the key and common thread between the two businesses – and it was the statutory Workplace Assessment (APV) that cracked the code:

In English, APV is called ‘Health & Safety Risk Assessment’, and it actually describes much better what it is about – namely a risk assessment of companies’ health and safety status. It also paints a much clearer picture of the APV’s real meaning and how WTW can use Woba’s APV as a risk management tool where they can help their customers prevent the loss of key employees before the damage happens

says Woba’s CEO, Malene Madsen.

 

The Solution

In January 2020, WTW and Woba established a co-branding collaboration. WTW chose to buy a license for Woba’s complete APV system, so that in future they can offer their customers a service that enables them to meet the Norwegian Working Environment Authority’s legal requirements for the APV in an easy and efficient way. The strategic collaboration between WTW and Woba was launched on 9 December and is already live in the Danish companies. Søren Egens Petersen talks here about the importance of the solution for their customers today:

A high level of employee well-being is one of the most important success criteria in any company, and therefore it is absolutely crucial that the management has a good overview of the areas in the company where there is a particular need to make an effort to eliminate dissatisfaction . With Woba, the company not only gets the overview, but also concrete recommendations for what can be done to increase well-being”.

says well-being expert Søren Egens Petersen from Corporate Health at Willis Towers Watson.

Woba & Group Logistic
Woba increased Group Logistics' employee well-being by 300%

Pernille Ristorp Sørensen is HR-Business Partner at Group Logistic (hverdag.dk) and in 2020 entered into collaboration with Woba to acquire a dynamic and more realtime picture of employee engagement.

A realization that employee well-being and engagement are the key words in the fight against ‘The Great Resignation’ – which counts a significant increase in sick leave and resignations, made Pernille choose Woba back in 2020.

Group Logistic actually had a fairly well-functioning working environment at the time, but after realizing the need to get a more realtime picture of the employees’ well-being and prioritizing the close feeling with the internal atmosphere, Pernille saw a need to learn more about the company’s working environment and not least to prevent any problems and dissatisfaction.

 

We are a company that cares enormously about the well-being of our employees, and before Woba we had an online mailbox where employees could sign in with a stone in their shoe. And when we came across Woba, we thought it could help us create a culture where employees also remembered to report it if they had something.

 

In order to clarify a valid starting point for the well-being and commitment as a whole, Pernille decided in consultation with Woba that they should start the collaboration with ongoing pulsing engagement surveys – in order to ‘take the pulse’ and get a solid, quick insight into the situation.

After some time with continuous pulse surveys, it was followed up with the implementation of the statutory workplace assessment.
