Your clients rely on their paratransit business to provide safe and specialized transportation services for individuals who are unable to use traditional public transit options. These operations carry unique risks, particularly when it comes to protecting the health and safety of their drivers, aides, and other transport staff.
Novatae Risk Group offers a dedicated Paratransit Workers Compensation Insurance Program through a nationally recognized “A”-rated carrier. With over 30 years of experience in transportation-related insurance, we understand the exposures your clients face and have the underwriting expertise to help you place tough or niche accounts.
Whether your client operates as a for-profit or not-for-profit entity, our program supports both emergency and non-emergency transport providers. Because we specialize in the specialty transportation space, we’ve built strong relationships with carriers that offer tailored workers compensation solutions for this sector.
