see the Explanation for Detailed Solution.
Explanation:
The broker should treat the renewal as a full exposure review, not a simple repeat of the previous policy. First, the two new offices must be added to the insurance program. The broker should confirm addresses, occupancy, property values, equipment, lease obligations, security, employees, and any change in revenue or professional activity at those locations. If the new offices are not disclosed properly, the firm may have uninsured property or liability exposures.
Second, the broker should review the break-in claim. This requires checking property, crime, burglary, security safeguards, alarm systems, locks, access controls, and any insurer recommendations. A recent theft loss may affect deductibles, terms, or underwriting attitude.
Third, the legal action involving a structural mistake is a major professional liability issue. The broker must review the architects' errors and omissions policy, claim reporting, retroactive date, limits, deductibles, engineers' involvement, and whether the claim has been properly notified.
Because the market is stable and the client is cooperative, renewal negotiations should be manageable.
However, the broker must update all material facts and recommend coverage changes where exposures have changed. Course topic reference: Monitoring and Modifying the Risk Management Plan; Liability; Professional Liability; Renewal Review; Architects' E & O .

정답:
see the Explanation for Detailed Solution.
Explanation:
Andrew should explain that hiring is a risk management issue because employees directly affect job-site safety, workmanship quality, liability exposure, and claims frequency. Renovating a run-down office building creates hazards such as structural instability, demolition work, tools and equipment use, electrical or plumbing work, falls, damage to existing property, and injury to workers or third parties. Poor hiring can increase all of these risks.
Andrew should advise the contractor to use a structured employee selection process. This should include verifying trade qualifications, licences, safety training, employment history, references, and experience with similar renovation projects. If employees will drive company vehicles, motor vehicle record checks should be considered. If employees will access client premises, tools, materials, or secure areas, background checks may be appropriate where legally permitted.
The contractor should also use written job descriptions, documented safety policies, orientation training, supervision, probationary review, and records of training. These controls reduce the chance of accidents, theft, defective work, and liability claims. They also show insurers that the contractor is professionally managed.
