Insurance Protection for the health of
your employees – and your business.

As a small business owner, one of your most important assets is your people. So when an employee suffers a work-related injury or illness, you feel it – both emotionally and financially.

Because employee injuries can impact your insurance premiums and your profitability, you need the knowledge of a seasoned company that offers the coverages and capabilities to help address these indirect costs.

At The Hartford, we're dedicated to helping you get injured employees back to work as quickly as is medically appropriate - so you can limit losses. We can even assist you in preventing injuries and illnesses from occurring in the first place.

Broad Range of Coverages*

Perhaps what business owners appreciate most about The Hartford's Workers' Compensation Program is our range of coverages. Because not every company's needs are the same, we offer two versions of our Workers' Compensation Broad Form Endorsement. Not only you find many of the standard coverages in our Basic version, but we also go beyond these statutory requirements. And if you're looking for additional coverages, you'll find we pack even more value into our Extended Options plan.

Here are just some of the coverages included in our Basic Broad Form Endorsement that may be especially valuable to your business:

• Reimbursement for your reasonable expenses - including loss of earnings - incurred on your behalf in connection with a claim, proceeding or suit we defend.
• Employer's liability stopgap for all states where workers' compensation is provided by a monopolistic state fund.
• Voluntary compensation for your employees who are not covered by state statute.
• Sixty days - versus the industry standard of 30 days - to notify us to add states where you have newly set up operations.

Our Extended Broad Form Endorsement Option adds valuable coverage at a nominal increase and includes all of the enhancements offered in our basic option, plus:

• Increased limits for employers' liability insurance.
• Waiver of our right to recover from other parties liable for an injury to your workers in those instances where you have signed an agreement with the other party requiring such a waiver.
• Extension of workers' compensation insurance to cover your employees who suffer employment-related injuries or illnesses while traveling on business outside the United States.
• Coverage for your obligation under the United States Longshoremans and Harbor Works Act to provide these federal benefits if an employee should unexpectedly be found subject to the Act.
