Safeco Recognizes 257 Agents With Award of Excellence

Safeco Insurance is presenting its annual Award of Excellence to 257 agents – representing 228 agencies across the country – with its 2012 Award of Excellence. The annual award celebrates Safeco’s most outstanding and committed agent partners. These partners have superior underwriting skills as well as belong to an agency that qualified for membership in Safeco’s H.K. Dent Society, the company’s agency recognition program.

Safeco says recipients of the Award of Excellence are granted additional underwriting authority that recognizes the long-term value their partnership adds to Safeco. Award of Excellence recipients for 2012 by region are California, 54; Central, 39; Mid-Atlantic, 21; Midwest, 12; Mountain, 12; Northeast, 35; Northwest, 59; and Southeast, 25.

“Safeco is proud to honor these agents for their long-term loyalty with our company and solid partnership with underwriting that’s built on mutual trust and respect,” says Debbie Akers, VP for Safeco’s underwriting field operations. “Each of these qualifying agents possesses outstanding underwriting abilities that serve both their customers and Safeco.”
