WHY US

Employers Direct Insurance Company is California’s only specialty direct writer of workers’ compensation insurance. Founded in 2002, Employers Direct has been widely accepted by business owners throughout California as a result of providing highly competitive rates, claims services designed to fight fraud and abuse, and loss prevention services that assist employers to create safe work environments.

Employers Direct is proud that a growing number of California’s best-run privately-held companies count themselves as policyholders. Niche industries include hotels, restaurants, golf and country clubs, new car dealers, food processors, manufacturing companies, specialty supermarket chains, and retailers.

Employers Direct works with business owners directly - there is no broker, no independent agent, and no middleman. Our policyholders are our customers, and therefore, there are no hidden agendas and no hidden fees or commissions - just quality service and the best possible price for your workers’ compensation insurance.

Please visit our Sales, Customer Service, Loss Control, Claims, Underwriting, and PCIC pages for more information about these services.
