01 Jun, 2010 WorkersCompensation.com
Denver, CO (CompNewsNetwork) - The following statement was made by the president of Pinnacol in regards to an investigation in which Channel 7News discovered board members took a five-day golf and wine trip to California.
"I want to respond to the recent Channel 7 story about Pinnacol's entertainment and agent recognition practices. Before I do, let me first apologize for overreacting to a situation that I considered an improper intrusion by the reporter into a private, personal ceremony being experienced by two of our guests.
Our board of directors, in its oversight of a mutual insurance company that receives no money from the state, has always recognized the importance of prudent business practices that are in line with the highest ethical standards.
Although agent recognition events are standard in the insurance industry and are employed by the companies Pinnacol competes within the Colorado marketplace, we will reevaluate with the board such recognition practices to ensure they conform to the highest professional standards."
