Workers Compensation for Environmental Contractors & Consultants
Workers compensation coverage is a crucial part of a company’s insurance program. It helps businesses avoid the real cost of an employee’s medical expenses and lost wages after an injury or illness at the workplace. And because of the potential inherent risks of pollution exposures for environmental contractors and consultants, it is wise for these insureds to carry Workers Compensation from a leading insurance provider in conjunction with their other lines of coverage.
Moving Workers Compensation accounts from one or more assigned risks or state funds into a single program will offer exceptional service, time efficiency, and competitively rated coverage.
