Risk Management Fund Program

The Risk Management Fund Program provides a mechanism for ICRMA members to fund expenditures supporting safety and risk management efforts throughout the year. Each year the Program allows members to contribute up to $5,000 to their Risk Management Fund, the balance for which is capped at $25,000. Once the maximum allowable balance is reached, members may not contribute to the fund until some of the funds are used. Requests to use the funds for reimbursement or pre-payment should be submitted as indicated on the request form for processing.
