In this episode of Insurance Shop Talk, host Eric Stein sits down with Ron Lucki, Vice President of Business Development at Ohio Indemnity Company, to discuss a powerful yet often-overlooked opportunity for P&C agents — helping nonprofits manage and insure their unemployment risk through the UC Assure program.
Ron breaks down how the UC Assure model works, how nonprofits can legally opt out of state unemployment tax systems, and why this creates both huge cost savings for nonprofit organizations and a new revenue stream for agents. He also walks through:
✅ How nonprofits can cut unemployment costs by 40% or more
✅ Which organizations qualify
✅ Why this program is safer and more predictable than self-funding or staying in the state pool
✅ How agents can earn recurring commissions with minimal effort — no new product training required
✅ The referral process, qualification tips, and key state deadlines
Whether you already serve nonprofit clients or are looking to expand your agency's book, this episode provides practical insights into an untapped niche that blends insurance, compliance, and steady revenue.
