The Company retains a significant portion of the insurance risks associated with workers’ compensation,
employee health, general, products liability, property and vehicle insurance. A portion of these self-insured losses
is managed through a wholly owned insurance captive. The Company maintains certain levels for stop-loss
coverage for each self-insured plan in order to limit its liability for large claims. The limits are per claim and are
$1.5 million for workers’ compensation and property, $0.7 million for employee health, and $1.0 million for
general, products liability, and vehicle.
