Lexington,KY ( WorkersCompensation.com)  – Kentucky Employers’ Mutual Insurance (KEMI), Kentucky’s leading workers’ compensation insurance provider, is issuing a dividend of $8.3 million to eligible policyholders. The dividend is a result of proactive management of claims by KEMI and its policyholders.
“KEMI is one of the few insurance companies in Kentucky that pays dividends to clients,” said Jon Stewart, president and chief executive officer of KEMI. “Our steadfast commitment to responsible financial management is critical for positioning KEMI to give back to our policyholders.”
More than 14,000 policyholders will receive a 10% dividend payment from KEMI. To qualify, policyholders must:
• Have a current active policy with KEMI.
• Have had an active policy for all 12 months of 2019.
