Chubb is among the insurance carriers trying to help agents adapt to the digital world with a new online distribution system for workers' compensation insurance.
Aimed at small small businesses, the system uses automation to take a lot of the legwork out of insurance applications, thus making it easier for agents to quote businesses with revenue under $10 million.
"Our new workers' compensation system is efficient and fully automated, making it easier for our agents to place and service small business accounts," said Jim Williamson, Division President, Small Commercial Insurance, Chubb North America. "Our goal is to provide small business owners the confidence of knowing if an injury or illness occurs on the job, they'll have the right coverage in place to ensure their employees, and their businesses, will return to normal as quickly and cost-effectively as possible."
