Thank you for contacting us recently. We appreciate your comments. In

NCCI Changes Position, Gives Employees American Flags
September 17, 2001 (Boca Raton, FL)
NCCI Holdings, Inc., today announced that it has changed its position on
flags in its workplace and offered any employees who wanted them American
flags and red-white-and-blue lapel ribbons as they entered the workplace
this morning.
President & CEO Bill Schrempf said he was meeting with employees this
morning to explain the company's change and apologize for not permitting
them to display the American flag on Friday during the National Day of
Prayer and Remembrance.
In announcing the change, Schrempf indicated that NCCI's senior management
team met over the weekend and decided to reverse the company's longstanding
position, which had been intended to protect employees.
This morning, the company took the following actions concerning the display
of the American flag by its employees:
1. Any interested employee can display an American flag on their desktop.
Flags will be provided for this purpose, if employees would like to have
one to display.
2. Red, white & blue lapel remembrance ribbons are being provided for those
who want to wear them.
NCCI, a shared-services organization serving the workers compensation
industry, offers a comprehensive array of products and services that enable
insurers and other stakeholders to access and use workers compensation data
to establish accurate loss costs, calculate experience rating
modifications, manage residual market mechanisms and reduce overall costs.
