HOW MIDWEST EMPLOYERS CASUALTY COMPANY IS DIFFERENT
We have redefined the way businesses buy excess Workers’ compensation insurance by helping employers manage their Total Cost of Risk. For years, clients, agents and insurance companies alike have often treated the purchase of excess insurance as just another financial transaction. Success or failure of any insurance renewal is based on how much more or less the insured pays in the insurance transaction. This transaction mindset has historically failed all parties involved, resulting in cyclical swings in insurance availability and cost.
“Midwest Employers Casualty Company is extremely valuable and helpful to me as I benchmark the effectiveness of our Workers’ Compensation Self-insurance program. They provide me with all the necessary information I need to compare our loss control/safety and claims management activity results to other organizations”.
