<strong>NATA</strong>/USAIG Workers’ Compensation<br />
Insurance Program<br />
The <strong>NATA</strong>/USAIG Workers’ Compensation Program<br />
was cre ated in 1975 with three specific goals:<br />
• Provide <strong>NATA</strong> members with a dependable longterm<br />
market for workers’ compensation insurance;<br />
• Structure the plan in such a way that if the overall<br />
loss experience of the participating members<br />
is favorable, participants would share in the return<br />
of a portion of the premium at the end of the<br />
policy year (Good Experience Return); and<br />
• Make joining the program as easy as possible.<br />
Today, after 35 years of continuous operation, the<br />
plan has attained or exceeded every goal established<br />
by its founders.<br />
Highlights of the plan:<br />
• Since its inception, the plan has annually distributed<br />
a Good Experience Return to participating<br />
members. Through 2009, plan participants have<br />
received more than $71 million in Good Experience<br />
Returns.<br />
• The number of participants has continued to<br />
grow, from 76 original members in 1975 to more<br />
than 700 in 2010.<br />
• USAIG—America’s first name in aviation insurance—managed<br />
by USAU (a division of Berkshire<br />
Hathaway), has provided the coverage since the<br />
plan’s inception.<br />
With all it has to offer, we feel the <strong>NATA</strong>/USAIG<br />
Workers’ Compensa tion Program is not only the<br />
finest workers’ compensation insurance plan on the<br />
market, but one of <strong>NATA</strong>’s most valuable member<br />
benefits.<br />

Compensation Program, call (212) 859-3988.<br />
