Just for Agents

Workers' compensation is good for Texas —
and Texas Mutual (TXM) is good for insurance agents.

Why sell workers' comp?

Workers' compensation is the only insurance that provides both medical and disability coverage for workers as well as legal protection for employers. Rather than patchwork together alternate coverage that can end up costing more and create gaps in protection, encourage your clients to carry workers' compensation. We offer eligible agents a competitive commission on each qualified policy written.
