How Marsh Can Help

Our specialists stay close to the issues involving the IRS, NLRB and other regulatory agencies so that we can assist you in maintaining the "arms-length" relationship between your company and the independent contractor.

Our Range of Capabilities:

A selection of Business Insurance Products allows the carrier to offer these programs to the independent contractor at affordable rates such as:

• Liability Coverage

Independent contractors need access to Health Insurance and related products, either for his/her own family of for the contractor's drivers. We can provide access to these through our vast network.

We offer a flexible approach to the Administration of the Insurance Programs to provide clients with exactly the level of involvement they desire, from self-administration using your existing record keeping systems to internet-based enrollment.

Claim Assistance is another way we provide personal service.  Re-establishing the productivity of the contractor is our foremost objective. We will provide the contractor with toll-free numbers and remain involved throughout the claims process.

Investment Options provide another unique approach to help independent contractors realize their financial objectives.  Whether saving for retirement, a child's education, or a new truck, your contractors will have access to the vast expertise of Putnam Investments, a Marsh Company.  With over 70 mutual fund accounts to choose from, the contractor will be able to realize financial benefits unavailable through typical savings accounts.

Our Consultative Service is one of the most unique in the industry.  Staffed with trucking experts with years of experience, these individuals can help fleets with specific issues such as:
