Your clients can receive new safety equipment with a Texas Mutual grant
 
We are committed to helping your clients maintain a safe and healthy workplace, which is why we've launched a new safety grant program . Your clients can apply until August 11, but for the best chance at receiving a grant, encourage them to submit their application early.
 
With a Texas Mutual safety grant, your clients can get the safety equipment they need for their workplace. Recipients will receive up to $1,500 reimbursement for the purchase of ergonomic, safety or industrial hygiene equipment. We look forward to seeing the safety improvements this program will bring to Texas businesses.

New video series covers workers' comp basics

As an agent, you have to keep up with regulations, standards, and practices to be the strongest advocate for your clients. To help, we've launched a new video series, Workers' Comp Expert Minute.

This resource is especially valuable for new agents or customer service reps in your office to help them quickly learn the ins and outs of workers' compensation.

The series explains workers' compensation basics, safety groups, classification groups, and the Texas Star Network. Start with Understanding Safety Groups above for a quick overview of the benefits your clients will receive when they join a safety group.
