Wholesale appetite: workers' comp
Workers' compensation we place.
Statutory cover for employee injury — with class codes audited against actual operations and a programme designed for how the firm actually staffs. Already appointed? Send us the account. New here? Apply for appointment below.
Workers' compensation pays medical expenses, lost wages and disability or death benefits for work-related injuries and illnesses — and provides the exclusive-remedy framework that limits direct employee suits against the employer. It's statutory in nearly every state.
The triggers
we hear most.
It has W-2 employees.
Workers' comp is statutory in nearly every state — there's no opting out. Comp has to be set up to match where employees actually work, including ghost policies for sole proprietors and corporate officers where states require them.
The experience mod is creeping up at renewal.
The mod factor is the single biggest driver of premium. We audit the loss history with the rating bureau, push for corrections where the data is wrong, and match to carriers that price the trade correctly.
There are remote workers or operations across more than one state.
A remote employee in a state where the firm hasn't operated before still needs comp in that state. Multi-state programmes and 'all states' endorsements exist to make sure no employee is uncovered when they get hurt — but the programme has to be designed for it from the start.
Carriers keep mis-classifying the crews.
Class codes determine premium. Mis-coded crews — paying construction rates on an office worker, or general clerical rates on warehouse staff — quietly bleed money. We audit codes against actual operations every renewal.
Inside the
policy.
Medical expenses
Treatment for work-related injuries and illnesses, including emergency care, ongoing treatment, prescriptions and rehabilitation.
Lost wages
Indemnity for lost income while an employee can't work — at the rate and duration prescribed by each state's comp statute.
Disability and death benefits
Long-term disability indemnity and survivor benefits when a workplace injury results in permanent impairment or death.
Employer's liability
Defence and indemnity for the rare but real claims by employees or third parties that fall outside the comp exclusive-remedy framework.
Where buyers
get caught out.
1099 contractors and freelancers
Comp covers W-2 employees. True 1099s carry their own — but misclassified contractors can trigger comp liability anyway.
Injuries off the job
Comp covers work-related injury and illness. Personal-time injuries sit with the employee's own health insurance.
Intentional self-harm or misconduct
Comp excludes injuries from intentional self-harm, intoxication and serious misconduct — though the bar for these exclusions is high.

How we place
this line.
Appetite matched in-house
Every submission gets matched internally against the carrier relationships most likely to write it — not shopped blind into a dozen inboxes.
Every hour risks the client
Suitable accounts move to an underwriter after a licensed broker reviews the match and final file. Carrier response and quote timing depend on the account and market.
