The Association of California Water Agencies Joint Powers Insurance Authority – ACWA JPIA for short – is a partnership of water agencies dedicated to avoiding the high cost of commercial insurance. Formed in 1979, JPIA is not an insurance agency or carrier. It is a risk-sharing pool for property, liability, workers’ compensation and employee benefits, which allows for more rate stability, broader coverage and expanded benefits and services than private insurance. Our offerings are unique to the water industry; member agencies themselves – their directors and managers – have selected and refined the various programs. Only agencies that demonstrate a commitment to effective risk management programs are accepted in to JPIA.
ACWA JPIA is an award-winning risk pool for water agencies, and we are excited to announce an opening for the position of Workers’ Compensation Examiner. This position is open due to an upcoming retirement on the team. The candidate will be joining a dynamic team of five others. This is an excellent opportunity for a detail-oriented professional with a commitment to providing exceptional customer service. If you are eager to contribute to a collaborative and supportive work environment, we encourage you to apply. The core job responsibilities are to provide outstanding customer service to our members and fellow staff, and to independently manage medical-only and indemnity workers’ compensation claims. The salary range for the position is: $77,953 - $116,930. To determine approximate total compensation, add an additional 38% to the salary. This more accurately represents the total benefits received as an employee. For the job profile and application procedure, please go to the JPIA’s website, www.acwajpia.com.
