W. Va. Workers Comp Writer BrickStreet Consolidates Operations

West Virginia’s private workers’ compensation insurance carrier, BrickStreet Mutual Insurance Co., is moving to a new corporate headquarters in downtown Charleston.

BrickStreet began the process of consolidating 460 employees from three Kanawha Valley locations into the new location at 400 Quarrier St., on Oct. 5.

The firm expects the move to be complete on Oct. 19, and the first business day with all of its Charleston-based employees under one roof will be Oct. 22.

BrickStreet paid $9 million for the former Montgomery Ward and Bob Evans Restaurant property in December 2006.

Business units are being moved under a staggered schedule designed to prevent any disruption in conducting normal business.
