Access to “affordable and comprehensive” workers’ compensation insurance is being made available through a partnership between the Tire Industry Association (TIA) and Federated Insurance.

Federated is rated A+ by AM Best, and its mutual company structure allows the carrier to maintain a steady focus on the clients. “This commitment has lead to the development of many value-added products and services that will help TIA members control their losses and lower their insurance premiums,” says TIA Executive Vice President Roy Littlefield.

Since 2009, Federated has been recommended by TIA for the Tire Dealer Shield property and casualty insurance program designed specifically for tire dealers.

“Federated has a track record of partnering with clients to develop effective risk management teams. Federated can assist TIA members with implementing programs such as return-to-work/light-duty, drug- and alcohol-free workplace and enrollment in managed care networks,” Littlefield says. “By complementing an aggressive risk management strategy with Federated’s workers' compensation products, TIA members can position their business to reduce their workers' compensation premiums.”

Federated is also making available its Workers Compensation Self-Insured Retention program for TIA members. It is “an ideal tool for businesses that have effective risk management programs in place to help prevent and reduce losses. When implemented in coordination with a TIA member’s risk management plan, this new program is an effective way to give them more control over their workers compensation insurance costs,” according to Littlefield.

“TIA is proud to expand our strong relationship with Federated by now offering our members access to quality, affordable workers’ compensation insurance. TIA members have access to exclusive money-saving programs, discounts on training, and more, making TIA membership a value and not an expense,” he says.
