WACO -- Austin-based Texas Mutual Insurance Co., which describes itself as the states leading provider of workers compensation insurance, has distributed $225 million in dividends to 40,000 policyholders, including 442 in McLennan County.
Texas Mutual uses a formula based on premium size, loss ratio and company history to reward loyal policyholders who share Texas Mutuals commitment to preventing workplace accidents and helping injured workers get well and back on the job, a news release said.
As part of this years distribution, it will send $2.7 million in dividends to more than 400 local businesses.
Wes Bailey, president of Bailey Insurance and Risk Management in Waco, applauded Texas Mutuals approach, saying, These dividends help support job growth and other company benefits, and demonstrate the efforts of companies to control insurance costs.
