Riviera ISD switches to TASB workers' compensation citing lower cost and easier claims
Summary
Trustees approved moving workers' compensation to the TASB Risk Management Fund, which administrators said will save the district roughly $7,000 annually and provide an online claims system for employees.
Riviera ISD trustees voted to adopt the TASB Risk Management Fund workers' compensation plan for 2025–26, replacing the district's current program for that line (property insurance with McGrath remains separate).
"The TASB is user-friendly, allows employees to file claims online," Ms. Moreno told trustees, and she cited "significant cost savings from $16,000 annually compared to the $23,000 currently paid." The board approved the move unanimously.
Administrators said the change should reduce administrative friction for staff filing claims and lower the district's annual workers' compensation costs. The motion directs administration to complete the transition and coordinate with payroll and risk management.
