How Manufacturing Insurance Can Help You Stay OSHA Compliant

Maintaining a safe, compliant workplace is a top priority for manufacturers in Illinois. OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) regulations and meeting safety standards may be challenging, but the right manufacturing insurance can support those efforts. Pitcher Insurance Agency, Inc. works with manufacturers to review exposures and can help keep your operations, staff and reputation on track.

The Connection Between Manufacturing Insurance and OSHA Compliance

Manufacturing insurance supports both financial stability and a broader risk management plan. OSHA sets strict workplace rules, and failing to comply may lead to penalties and increased accident risk. The right insurance policies may help you:

• Address workplace hazards by identifying and reducing risks
• Cover costs related to workplace injuries or illnesses
• Show commitment to a well-run workplace, which may lower the chance of OSHA violations
• Access resources and support for training and compliance programs

Key Coverages That Support Compliance

Several types of manufacturing insurance may directly support your OSHA compliance efforts, including the following:

• Workers’ compensation insurance may provide coverage for medical expenses and lost wages if an employee is injured on the job.
• General liability insurance may cover claims for third-party injuries or property damage.
• Product liability insurance may apply to claims related to defective products
• Commercial property insurance may help you recover from property damage due to fire, theft or other covered events.
