Welcome, Brokers!

Your partner finding the best solutions for your clients’ needs.

At PERMA, we value the relationship between an insurance broker and their client. Our goal is to maintain a strong partnership with all brokers representing PERMA members, and offer the best Workers’ Compensation program for your clients. Our expertise, combined with our dedication to personal attention, value-add services, and focus on employee health and safety, make PERMA an excellent choice.

Custom Underwriting

Individualized coverage solutions.

PERMA can underwrite any New York state public entity with taxing authority. Each member policy is written based on their own merits, needs and individual experience. One of our qualified underwriters is assigned to each member to calculate a unique Experience Modification Factor, or EMF, to ensure members are treated equitably and fairly. This ratio is developed by evaluating payroll classifications, previous loss history, as well as severity versus frequency of prior losses.

PERMA underwriters:

  • regularly review and recommend grant opportunities where appropriate.
  • work closely with prospective members’ brokers to develop innovative coverage offers.
  • are direct employees of PERMA; unlike many competitors, members do not pay for a privately contracted company’s profit margin.

Membership in PERMA delivers cost effective workers’ compensation coverage and collaboration on promoting workplace safety.

Working Together

Building relationships.

PERMA values the brokers we work with – and have more than 90 percent of our member relationships involving a broker, so we know that they value working with us as well.  Our dedication to maintaining these mutually beneficial relationships can be demonstrated in broker agreements including the highlights below.

  • Over 90% of PERMA members obtain membership through a trusted insurance broker
  • We will not solicit prospective members directly, over using a broker
  • Brokers are offered a generous commission schedule, as well as opportunities to earn additional commission
  • We hosts annual meetings to strengthen the communication and trust in our provider-broker partnership
  • We value an engaged broker connection to every member
