Perks and discounts can save members thousands of dollars a year when they utilize their OEL membership benefits. From vehicle discounts to legal consultations and more, here is just a sample of what we offer our members.
Property and Casualty Insurance
Your liability, property, equipment and automobiles are protected through the OEL member coverage that is designed specifically for electrical contractors and their unique needs. EasyInsure is dedicated solely to the OEL Insurance Program, ensuring that your business is provided the best protection at the best possible rates. At your convenience, we have a digital platform which means you can now quote and buy online.
Surety Bonding
When bidding on government contracts, surety bonding is required to be purchased. This is not an easy or affordable process, especially for smaller companies. The OEL has access to all surety insurers and has the expertise to secure coverage in the most efficient and cost-effective way. This is what makes being part of the team worth it. For smaller companies, being an OEL member assures the best placement rate in the industry with approvals in half the time.
Employer Group Benefits
The majority of electrical contractors in Ontario have less than 15 employees. In fact, over 50% have one to four employees. Employer group benefits cater to size. If you are a smaller company, you will often be exposed to substantial price increases or significantly reduced coverage limits. With the OEL program through EasyInsure, you'll get the advantages of group buying with one of North America's largest insurance brokers. Whether you are the sole employee of the company or have 5,000 employees, we have the right plan for you. As part of the OEL group benefits plan, you'll also have access to additional benefits including human resources, wellness programs and other employee programs.
Group Home and Auto
Now that you know your company is secured, your personal assets deserve the best rates and coverage – not only for you, but your employees as well. The OEL provides significant discounts for your group home and auto plan. If you have multiple claims or complex personal needs, the OEL insurance program has the expertise to get the best rates and coverage.
