South Carolina State Accident Fund

Since 1943, the South Carolina State Accident Fund has provided workers' compensation coverage for the state of South Carolina and local governmental entities within South Carolina.  For over 75 years, the State Accident Fund has provided a continuous, guaranteed source of cost-effective workers' compensation coverage for our policyholders. Today, we serve nearly 600 employers and 200,000 employees throughout our state.

Since 2013, the State Accident Fund has also included the South Carolina Workers’ Compensation Uninsured Employers’ Fund, which ensures payment of workers’ compensation benefits to injured employees whose employers failed to acquire required coverage for their employees. 

Our mission here at SAF is to provide cost effective, guaranteed workers' compensation coverage for our policyholders.  We also strive to provide superior servicing for the policyholders and the injured workers we cover and ensure provision of workers' compensation benefits to injured employees whose employers have failed to comply with the coverage requirements of the South Carolina Workers' Compensation Act.
