Larimer County & Jeff Green Win Two Top Industry Awards

Long-time TRISTAR client Larimer County, Colorado, and Risk Manager Jeff Green have earned two of the workers' compensation industry's highest honors. PropertyCasualty360's 2026 Workers' Comp Risk Management Award for Excellence was presented in partnership with the Workers' Compensation Institute (WCI) on August 26th at the WCI Annual Educational Conference in Orlando, Florida. The 2026 Risk & Insurance Theo Award followed on September 29th at the National Comp conference in Las Vegas.

Both awards celebrate excellence, innovation, and best practices in workers' compensation and injury prevention. They recognize a transformative program that cut the County's experience modification rating by 46% and reduced claim frequency — even as the workforce grew by 28% and payroll surged by 93%. These results reflect a sustained commitment to proactive risk management, a strong safety culture, and the power of collaboration among internal departments and external partners working toward a shared goal.

"This award is a testament to teamwork — the collective expertise and commitment of our TPA, attorneys, actuaries, risk management partners, and internal departments working together toward a shared goal of a safe workplace." — Jeff Green, Risk Manager, Larimer County, CO

Jeff's work proves that proactive safety culture and smart program design protect both people and bottom lines — and that one dedicated leader, supported by the right partners, can transform an entire program.
