Why AWC Workers’ Comp Retro
The AWC Workers’ Comp Retro program provides training and tools that empower employers to lower risks for on-the-job injuries. Our focus on injury prevention and safety reduces your overall workers’ compensation costs and provides the opportunity for refunds.
AWC Workers’ Comp Retro Program is a voluntary financial incentive program that helps employers reduce their industrial insurance costs through improved claims experience and refunds. We offer the Retro Pool and the Safety Alliance, our service-only program.
Every employee, home safe, every night is at the heart of our work and member expectations. Not only do these expectations ensure members are in compliance with state regulations, but that all members are working together to realize the largest refund possible for the Retro Pool.
