A new online system from Chubb will help independent agents quote and issue a comprehensive workers’ compensation policy for small businesses.

“Our new workers’ compensation system is efficient and fully automated, making it easier for our agents to place and service small business accounts,” said Jim Williamson, Division President, Small Commercial Insurance, Chubb North America.

Chubb’s workers’ compensation policy for small business owners is designed to meet the needs of a wide range of industries, and includes the following coverage highlights:

– Provides coverage for small businesses with as few as one employee up to businesses with revenues of $10M
– Includes small business protection for medical expenses and lost wages to employees, providing security and peace of mind for employers
– Incorporates versatile coverage options including waiver of subrogation and various employer liability limits
– Easy, 24/7 automated system access with the ability to generate a quote and issue a policy in just minutes

When combined with Chubb’s business owner’s policy (Chubb BOP), Chubb’s workers’ compensation policy for small businesses provides customers an insurance solution with broad coverage and Chubb’s policy and claim service capabilities.

Williamson added, “At Chubb we understand that employees are a small business’ most valuable asset and are often like family. Our goal is to provide small business owners the confidence of knowing if an injury or illness occurs on the job, they’ll have the right coverage in place to ensure their employees, and their businesses, will return to normal as quickly and cost-effectively as possible.”
