Help To Protect Your Employees And Your Business

Who We Are

Zenith is the premier specialist in workers’ compensation nationally, and a leader in property and casualty insurance for the California agriculture industry. We combine depth of expertise with a forward-thinking approach to achieve the highest level of service and outcomes for our clients.

We believe insurance is a long-term investment in your employees and the success of your business. Great businesses become even better when they invest in the best. With every company we protect, we work to help you maximize your return on insurance.

What sets us apart is our people-first approach. By getting to know you and your unique operation, we’re able to guide you toward generating more value in the long run, so you can keep your business – and your employees – safe and productive.

Your business challenges are unique, and a one-size-fits-all solution rarely works. We foster strong relationships with our valued independent agents and brokers so together we’re able to explore solutions and address your business needs. View our Welcome to Zenith video to learn more.

You can expect us to:

  • Help you reduce workplace injuries and claims, so you stay productive
  • Put your employees first, to help anyone who is injured on the job get the medical care they need
  • Fight fraud, so you can protect what you’ve built
  • Provide attentive and responsive service, so you can focus on your business
  • Help you strengthen your business reputation, so you can compete for talent

It’s not just how we treat our policyholders – it’s our culture through and through. Our talented and committed employees value communication, cooperation, and respect. For us, doing well and doing right are the same thing.

We always strive to innovate and challenge each other to do better. One of the ways we continually look to the future is through our partnership with Fairfax’s Innovation Lab.

That’s who we are, and that’s TheZenith Difference.
