Workers Compensation Solutions for Ohio Employers
Purpose-Built for Employers Facing Rising Workers Compensation Costs
High workers compensation premiums, costly claims, and inflexible employer models can put unnecessary pressure on your business. Armada Employer Group helps Ohio employers take a more strategic approach to controlling workers’ compensation costs, managing risk, and improving financial predictability.
As an Alternative Employer Organization (AEO), Armada provides a flexible alternative for employers that want greater control without giving up their EIN, payroll provider, or business identity.
Is Armada the Right Fit for Your Business?
AEG May Be a Strong Fit If Your Company:
Armada is designed for CEOs, CFOs, business owners, and other leaders who are frustrated with high workers’ compensation costs, restrictive PEO arrangements, or employer programs that provide little visibility into financial outcomes.
- Spends $10,000 or more annually on workers compensation premiums
- Currently participates in the Ohio BWC state fund or a traditional PEO
- Has experienced costly claims that continue to affect workers compensation costs
- Wants more predictable, performance-driven cost control
- Needs stronger claims management and workplace risk support
- Wants to retain its EIN and existing payroll relationships
- Values greater transparency into claims and financial exposure
Even if your headquarters is located outside Ohio, Armada may be able to support your organization if you have employees working in the state.
For employers weighing different co-employment structures, AEG offers an alternative to traditional PEO arrangements that prioritize employer control, risk alignment, and financial transparency.
Industries We Serve Across Ohio
Workers’ compensation challenges vary significantly by industry. Injury exposure, job responsibilities, payroll composition, safety requirements, and claims patterns can all influence an employer’s overall cost of risk.
Armada supports Ohio businesses in industries where proactive claims management, safety support, and cost control can have a meaningful impact.
Manufacturing & Distribution
Production environments can expose employees to machinery, material handling, repetitive motion, slips and falls, and other workplace hazards. Armada helps manufacturing and distribution employers take a more proactive approach to workers’ compensation costs, claims, and workplace risk.
Warehousing & Logistics
Fast-moving warehouse and logistics operations face risks associated with lifting, forklifts, loading and unloading, repetitive work, and high-volume operations. AEG helps employers improve claims oversight while creating a more predictable approach to workers’ compensation costs.
Construction & Field Service
Construction crews and field service teams operate in changing environments where safety and risk management are critical. Armada provides workers compensation, claims, and risk support designed to help Ohio contractors manage exposure and protect financial performance.
Janitorial & Sanitation
Janitorial and sanitation employees may encounter repetitive motion, lifting, chemical exposure, slips and falls, and changing work environments. AEG helps employers manage these risks while maintaining greater control over workers’ compensation costs.
Healthcare & Home Providers
Healthcare organizations, nursing homes, and home-based care providers face distinct risks related to patient handling, overexertion, repetitive motion, slips and falls, and other workplace injuries. Armada helps healthcare employers improve claims outcomes and manage long-term workers’ compensation exposure.
Delivery Fleets & Last-Mile Transportation
Drivers and delivery teams face risks both on the road and while loading, unloading, lifting, and moving products. AEG helps transportation employers take a more coordinated approach to workers’ compensation, claims management, and workplace risk.
Why Ohio Employers Choose Armada
Managing workers’ compensation effectively requires more than reacting to claims after they occur. Armada combines workers’ compensation, claims oversight, safety support, and employer services into a more coordinated approach focused on controlling risk and improving financial predictability.
Greater Control Over Workers Compensation and Risk
- Alternative workers compensation program designed for cost control
- Employer-specific risk-based pricing
- Pay-as-you-go premium funding aligned with payroll cycles
- Direct claims and risk management oversight
- Proactive return-to-work coordination
- Workplace safety and loss-control support

Instead of managing workers’ compensation, payroll, claims, and employer risk through disconnected systems, AEG provides a more coordinated structure while allowing employers to maintain operational control.
More Than Workers Compensation
Workers’ compensation may be at the center of AEG’s model, but workforce risk extends beyond premiums and claims. Payroll administration, compliance, employee benefits, tax incentives, and other employer responsibilities can all affect the true cost of maintaining a workforce.
Armada coordinates a broader range of employer solutions to help HR, finance, and leadership teams reduce administrative complexity and improve workforce cost management.
