Pinnacol's Place in Colorado Business
Pinnacol Assurance plays a crucial role in helping Colorado maintain an attractive business environment. We're the assured source of workers' compensation for Colorado and a major contributor to rate stability. During tough economic times, we're steadfast — never abandoning Colorado or workers' compensation like some of our competitors.
We're also committed to being a good corporate citizen in this state we've called home for more than 90 years. Our employees volunteer thousands of hours in the community each year and, through the Pinnacol Foundation, we've awarded almost $1 million in college scholarships to the children of workers who've been seriously injured or killed on the job. Since 1915, we've grown from industry pioneer to Colorado's choice for workers' compensation. Pinnacol today serves approximately 55,000 customers across the state of Colorado. Learn More:
