    Here\’s a fun method of deriving satisfaction while helping to eliminate fraud.

    If you track certificates issued by contractors to your clients, and their Comp is with NYSIF, validate the certs through the SIF website.

    I once had a sub issue a GC client a funny-looking cert. Turns out the sub had whited-out the cert holders name and typed in a new name and address – with a different font! After receiving OK from the client, one good call to the local SIF underwriters tipped them off to the fraud and started all sorts of back-audits and fines.

    Makes even a dreary Wednesday morning fun!
