The safety and loss experts with the PCC program are here to guide you through the certification process.
Turn Safety into Success
Prioritizing safety protects a company's workers and its bottom line. Certification creates savings for businesses by helping keep premiums low and providing direct discounts of up to 10% on workers' compensation premiums. Demonstrating a strong commitment to safety helps prevent injuries, can create a positive work environment, and can become a competitive advantage.
