A & J Petersburg Agency, the Decorah insurance agency, has been working with the Postville School District and EMC Insurance Companies to prevent employee injuries and to control workers' compensation expenses.

That work is paying off. Now EMC Insurance has presented Postville Schools with an award for the school district's commitment to safe working environments and for its collaboration with EMC.
