YoYour technicians are the heart of your pest control business. Every inspection, treatment, and client visit depends on their safety and reliability. At Eastman Insurance Solutions (EIS Texas), we help pest management companies protect their teams through specialized Workers Compensation Insurance designed for the unique risks of pest control operations in Texas.
Even when your safety protocols are strong, accidents can happen. Our programs ensure your employees are cared for, your business stays compliant, and your operations continue without disruption.
Industry Overview (Localized for Texas)
Pest control technicians in Texas face daily occupational hazards—chemical exposure, repetitive motion injuries, vehicle accidents, and slips or falls during property inspections.
Although Texas does not mandate workers compensation coverage for most private employers, pest control companies operating under commercial contracts or state licensing often require it for compliance and credibility.
Partnering with EIS Texas ensures your business meets all contractual and regulatory standards while providing the protection your employees and clients expect from a professional operator.
Core Risks & Exposures
Pest control work environments are high-risk and varied—from attics and crawlspaces to outdoor service areas. Key exposures include:
- Chemical and pesticide exposure injuries
- Vehicle-related accidents while driving between client locations
- Slips, trips, and falls during inspections or treatments
- Strains, sprains, and repetitive use injuries from manual labor
- Animal or insect bites during service calls
Without adequate coverage, a single workplace injury can result in costly out-of-pocket expenses and legal exposure.
Bespoke Insurance Solutions
EIS Texas provides Workers Compensation Insurance tailored specifically for pest control companies, offering:
- Medical expense coverage for work-related injuries or illnesses
- Lost wage replacement during recovery periods
- Employer liability protection (Stop-Gap or Employers Liability coverage)
- Return-to-work programs to help employees recover efficiently
- Experience modification review and claims management for long-term cost control
We collaborate with trusted carriers like AmTrust, Guard, and Hartford, ensuring strong claims support and affordable premiums for Texas pest control businesses.
How EIS Texas Redefines Workers Compensation Risk Strategy
At Eastman Insurance Solutions (EIS Texas), we believe that workers compensation insurance should be more than a line item — it should be a strategic tool to strengthen your business. Our process goes far beyond securing a policy. We work side-by-side with pest control business owners to uncover root causes of risk, build measurable strategies for improvement, and drive lasting results.
1. Deep-Dive Risk Discovery
Our team starts by analyzing your existing operations, safety practices, and loss history. We conduct a detailed review of:
- Injury trends and frequency by job function
- Safety training consistency and compliance documentation
- Claims experience and mod factor history
- Vendor and subcontractor safety standards
This data-driven approach helps us identify where risk originates, not just where it appears in claims.
2. Targeted Risk Strategy Development
Once risks are identified, we collaborate with your leadership team to design a custom risk management roadmap. This strategy includes:
- Clear risk objectives tied to measurable performance goals
- Policy and procedure enhancements to improve claim outcomes
- Training recommendations for field supervisors and technicians
- Carrier communication plans for proactive renewal positioning
Each plan is fully documented and aligned with your operational and financial priorities.
3. Assisted Plan Implementation
EIS doesn’t stop at strategy—we assist in the rollout and adoption of your workers compensation improvement plan. Our consultants help your team launch new processes, communicate safety expectations, and align accountability across management and field staff.
We also provide access to carrier loss control specialists, safety templates, and on-site support when needed to ensure changes are practical, not theoretical.
4. Benchmarking and Continuous Improvement
Through quarterly or semiannual reviews, we measure progress against key performance indicators such as claim frequency, cost per claim, and mod score improvement. This allows us to benchmark success, refine strategies, and ensure you continue moving toward best-in-class performance.
Our goal is to help you transform workers compensation from a compliance requirement into a profit-protecting system that strengthens your workforce and your bottom line.
