The Arizona School Alliance for Workers’ Compensation, Inc. (“The Alliance”), was formed in response to the growing need of Arizona school districts to increase the level of service while stabilizing the cost of worker’s compensation coverage.

It is with this goal in mind that the Alliance was formed and incorporated.  The Alliance is a non-profit organization that is an alternative to the State Compensation Fund and other private workers’ compensation carriers.  It is our intention to provide the highest quality workers’ compensation insurance coverages, claims administration and safety and loss control services.

The Alliance was formed pursuant to ARS 15-342(13), 15-382(B)(3) and 11-952.01(B), which authorizes Arizona school districts to enter into intergovernmental agreements to jointly form non-profit corporations for the purpose of self-insurance or the joint purchase of insurance.  Because the Alliance is a qualified procurement unit as allowed by ARS 15-213, school districts can join without having to comply with competitive bidding requirements.
