Provisions for insurance claims are mainly in respect of the Group’s workers compensation, employment practices liability and third party general liability insurances. The amounts are based on reserves held in the Group’s captive insurance company, SCH Insurance Company, and are established using independent actuarial assessments wherever possible, or a reasonable assessment based on past claims experience.
