Bonding

Protect your company
Employee Theft costs US businesses billions of dollars each year. You can protect your company with fidelity bonds through the Washington State Bonding Program
 
What is a fidelity bond?
It is a form of insurance that covers you against loss due to employee theft, forgery, larceny or embezzlement. Fidelity bonds provide 100% insurance coverage, have no deductible and premiums are not set according to risk.
 
What can the bonding program do for you?
We can help protect your company by providing fidelity bonds for your high-risk employees. This includes those with bad credit, little work experience, or a history of drug use or incarceration. Most insurance companies will not cover people who are considered high-risk, but we do - and at no cost to you. Best of all there are no forms to fill out and no waiting period.

(Note: We do not provide fidelity bonds for the self-employed).

What is a bond?
It is actually called a fidelity bond. And it protects employers against loss due to employee theft, forgery or embezzlement. Certain businesses require that all employees who handle cash or valuables are bonded. This includes banks, insurance companies, janitorial services, and security companies.
 
How do you get a bond?
You can get a bond through a bonding company. However, if you are considered high-risk, most carriers will not cover you. High-risk means you have bad credit, little work experience, or a history of drug use or incarceration. This is where we can help.
 
What can the Bonding Program do for you?
We can provide a bond if you do not qualify for a traditional bond. The only requirements are that you live in Washington, are at least 16 years old and pay federal taxes. You must have a job before we can help because all bonds are attached to your employer.
