Five Reasons to Start 2019 with
MFG Works Partners, MTMIC and MMA
By Megan M. Brown ARM, CWCP, CAWC • MTMIC
The rising cost of workers’ compensation
coverage can be a crippling blow to Michigan’s
many small-to-mid-sized manufacturers. For
employers looking for a cost-effective, reliable
workers’ compensation option, MMA and the
Manufacturing Technology Mutual Insurance
Company (MTMIC) are proud to offer the
MFG Works Partners program. MTMIC is the
Association’s designated partner for all workers’
compensation insurance offerings and has been
a Michigan leader in reducing claims costs while
using their expertise to improve workplace
safety for the past 43 years.
There are countless reasons to start 2019 off
with MTMIC, but for manufacturers looking to
compete around the state, across the country and in
an increasingly global economy, these five should
rise above the rest:

over the past four years.
Reducing insurance costs is an important factor

through the claims process while making sure that
your employee is getting the medical care necessary
to return them to pre-injury status. The combination
of loss control expertise and a dedicated claims staff
will assist you in significantly reducing injury and
claims costs while helping your bottom line.
