About Us

We are not your typical insurance company. We are different.

HEMIC’s creation as a private, mutual insurance company over 20 years ago was a demonstration of innovative leadership in Hawai`i: the legislation that enabled our existence was an unprecedented partnership of stakeholders working together to solve a market problem. We have been dedicated to thought leadership, innovation, and service ever since.

We understand Hawai‘i’s businesses like no one else. Our staff and operations are 100% local, and we only insure Hawai‘i businesses. We know that the people we serve are our neighbors and our community, and we serve with aloha. We provide personalized service to businesses large and small, across all industries and demographics.

Aloha from the CEO.

As Hawaiʻi moves forward with recovery, at HEMIC we are inspired by our belief in the difference we can make for our community. While the nature of work and the workplace has changed significantly in the past year, our mission to serve Hawaiʻi with excellence, integrity, and a strong connection remains unwavering.

As the needs of our policyholders and their employees evolve, we will continue to innovate with new services and programs.

Mahalo for your partnership!

Martin J. Welch, CEO
