Helping Construction Businesses Succeed

Get the Workers’ Comp Coverage You Need

As a state board prerequisite for maintaining a contractor’s license, workers’ compensation insurance is essential to the construction industry and represents a substantial investment. Instead of purchasing an individual policy outright, our clients receive coverage through our large, group policy, which has several benefits:

benefits5

Pay-as-you-go

Coverage is billed with payroll each period, which eliminates upfront costs and large down payments.

benefits6

No annual audits

Annual audits and associated costs are eliminated.

benefits7

Eliminates wasteful spending

Only pay for coverage for employees who report wages (perform work) during a pay period.

benefits8

Affordable, flexible coverage

Our PEO solution includes affordable coverage delivered by our own AM Best-rated carrier (B++), Frank Winston Crum Insurance.

benefits9

Comprehensive claims management

We offer 24-hour reporting, processing, timely care for injured employees, and more.

Are you ready to let go of administrative tasks and focus on your business?

Here are a few ways we support business processes common to the construction industry:
  • Payroll processing. Whether your business requires multi-state payrolls, job costing, or certified payrolls, we can help.
  • HR administration. We’ll administer your unemployment claims, including documentation and representation in hearings and appeals. We’ll also ensure seamless wage garnishment.
  • Payroll taxes. In each state where your business operates, we’ll manage withholdings for FICA, FUTA, SUTA, Medicare, etc. and we’ll file 940/941s, W-2s, W-3s, 1099s, SUTA, and others, on your behalf.
  • OSHA reports. We prepare and submit required year-end OSHA 300 reports on your behalf.
  • Self-Service Technology. If you need to generate a Workers’ Comp Certificate of Insurance from a job site or enter simple payrolls on-the-go, you can do so easily, online, or via mobile, through our HR Information System, MyFrankCrum.

Your Partner In Safety and Risk Management

Especially In the construction industry, worker safety and HR risk management are a constant concern.

Here are some of the ways we keep construction businesses buttoned-up:
  • Loss control. Upon request, we’ll provide a complimentary loss control survey, an on-site review of your facilities and job sites. From there, we equip you with the knowledge, resources, and safety solutions to improve loss control.
  • HR risk management and compliance. Our team offers guidance to help you prevent lawsuits and stay in compliance with federal, state, and local laws. In the event of an employment-related claim, you’ll be covered through Employment Practices Liability Insurance (EPLI) provided through our master plan.
