Self-Insurance

What Is Workers’ Compensation Self‑Insurance?

Self‑insurance allows members to collectively fund and manage their workers’ compensation risk instead of paying premiums to a traditional insurance company. Members contribute to a shared pool that pays claims and operating costs.

When claims are well‑managed and safety performance is strong, surplus funds are returned to members as dividends.

Why Self‑Insurance Works
  • Greater cost control
  • Reduced overhead
  • Local decision‑making
  • Financial incentives for safety

Members often find they don’t need to re‑shop coverage every year. Once enrolled, the program runs smoothly, making life easier for both members and their agents.
