SCF Arizona is a full-service organization providing complete workers' compensation insurance services. The SCF Association Safety Program (ASP) enables trade and business associations to offer members the opportunity to lower the cost of workers' compensation insurance.

How does the program work:
Association members that are qualified policyholders in good standing are eligible to participate. If you are a member of the Arizona Chapter of the NTMA, feel free to download an enrollment form by "clicking here."

Each participating member maintains an individual policy and remains responsible to SCF for payroll and premium reporting. The member may have an individual experience rating and will be entitled to a premium discount on an individual basis, if eligible.

It is required that association approval be obtained for participation in the program.

What are the rewards:
The program allows members the opportunity to share in an additional bonus dividend, through the association.

Each participating member will receive no less than its earned individual dividend and, in addition, will share in the group bonus dividend, if earned.

Dividend Benefit:
Bonus Dividend - Averages 40 percent to 50 percent more than your individual dividend.
(All earned dividends are paid approximately 10 to 12 months after the association base year ends.)

Shock Loss Protection -$75,000 loss limit applied to each claim for dividend purposes.

An active and unified approach to accident prevention can mean a larger dividend for members. By working with SCF and the association, members can pave the way toward safer operations and higher dividend returns.

ATMA Safety Team:
The ATMA Safety Teams meets once a month, typically on the 2nd Thursday of the month. Four times a year, we review the SCF Claims Analysis Reports that are provided by SCF. In 2007, we meet in Feb, May, July & October.

To join our safety committee, contact the Team Leader, Mark Lashinske with Modern Industries at 480-656-1829 or the ATMA Executive Director at 602-242-8826.
