The Louisiana Association of Self Insured Employers (LASIE) was originally formed in 1991 to promote and protect the right of businesses to self-insure with a focus on workers’ compensation. The organization serves as a spokesman at the state and federal level on all issues affecting self-insurers, acts as a statewide information service and educational forum for Louisiana employers. LASIE’s mission and services continue to expand based upon the ever changing insurance and regulatory landscapes and the needs of its members. In 2015 LASIE expanded its services to become the “Voice of the Self-Insurance Industry.” LASIE has become the legislative and regulatory watchdog to protect against laws that would adversely affect all lines of self-insurance, including workers’ compensation, health, auto liability, general liability, property & casualty, maritime and fiduciary liability.
