Choose Non-Subscription as a Cheaper, More Managable Solution to Workers Compensation!
TAGA offers coverage through all the major providers of Occupational Accident Coverage.
Texas is unique among the states in allowing employers to not participate or “opt out” of the Workers Compensation system. Tejas American General Agency’s Non-Subscription Department provides non-subscriber and occupational accident coverages and support services to those employers electing to limit their Texas employee injury exposure.
