ABOUT
California’s largest employers have long used self insurance as a way to beat the high cost of workers’ comp. Now groups of smaller employers can pool their resources to significantly reduce their workers’ comp costs with a Self Insured Group. A SIG can provide smaller employers with the same market advantages as larger employers.

California Agricultural Network SIG is a Non-Profit California Mutual Benefit Corporation, formed solely for the purpose of Group Self Insurance, under Chapter 8, subchapter 2, of the California Code of Regulations.
Savings, safety programs, aggressive claims handling and – most importantly – profits returned to YOU are just some of CAN’s benefits.
Self Insurance is not new. For many years, California’s largest employers have used self insurance as a way to beat the high cost of workers’ comp coverage. Currently, there are more than 1500 large employers and more than 400 public entities self insured.
The law allows groups of smaller employers to pool their resources to significantly reduce their workers’ comp costs through a Group Self Insurance program.
Such a Group can provide smaller employers with the same market advantages as larger employers.

Self Insured Solutions believes that injury claims must be handled promptly, professionally, and aggressively.
Aggressive claims management starts the minute a claim occurs. It entails gathering information from supervisors and witnesses, getting a drug test performed, and verifying that the claim occurred legitimately and that the worker is due benefits.
It also means working with the medical providers to ensure proper, complete and adequate care while avoiding over-treatment and unnecessary procedures.
Self Insured Solutions only works with the best claims managers in the state – experts in the kind of hands-on claims management you need to manage construction and agricultural risks.
