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.
