GAP Insurance

an important benefit to the consumer.

driven programs in the market, Service Group has developed
Preferred Protection Plan. This program has a variety of plans
and coverages with income opportunities for fixed and variable operations.

Workers' Compensation
Workers' compensation is
a state-regulated insurance program that pays medical bills and replaces some lost
wages for employees who are injured at work or who have work-related diseases or
illnesses.
Texas employers may choose whether or not to maintain workers' compensation insurance.
Employers who choose to have insurance may purchase policies from private insurance
companies, such as Service Lloyds, or self-insure, if they meet the requirements
of the Texas Workers' Compensation Act and are certified by the Texas Workers' Compensation
Commission.
