The Company retains a significant portion of the insurance risks associated with workers’ compensation, general and product 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 retained limits per claim type are $2.0 million for workers’ compensation, $8.0 million for auto liability, $21.5 million for property and $4.0 million for general and product liability.
