WHAT IS RETRO?
Retro is a safety incentive program with a simple goal: eliminate injuries through improvements
in safety and preventive strategies. If an employee is injured, help them get better quicker
with a successful return to work experience. Companies that do this, can earn a refund.

     SAFETY HAS ITS REWARDS
                   THE OLDEST AND LARGEST CONSTRUCTION RETRO GROUP IN THE STATE
                   ROII has returned over $500 million in refunds to companies since 1982.

                   ALL-INCLUSIVE SERVICES FOR YOUR WORKERS’ COMP NEEDS
                   You won’t find any other retro group that includes all our in-house services at no
                   additional cost.

                   PERFORMANCE
                   If the group and participant have a positive claim performance, they receive a refund.
                   Participants, on average, earn a 36% refund of their L&I premiums.
