Laundry Owners Mutual

In June of 1915 with the support of the Pennsylvania State Launderers Association, 85 industrial laundry employers formed an Association to collectively insure their employees from work place accidents under the newly written Workingmen’s Compensation Insurance law.

In December of that same year the Association incorporated under the name of Laundry Owners Mutual Liability Insurance Association and wrote its first policy on January 1, 1916. The Association was established as a Pennsylvania based Employer’s Mutual Company. In the early 1900’s Employer’s Mutuals were in abundance, however today, Laundry Owners Mutual is the only remaining Employer’s Mutual insurance company operating in Pennsylvania.
