Testimonial: Lonnie Coleman

“My connection to the program is more than a relationship – it’s a partnership. They are just as invested in our success as we are.”  Lonnie Coleman, president of Coleman Spohn Corp. 

MetroHealth Health Hospital Bed Tower, The Hilton Hotel, The Global Center for Innovation & Health, The Cleveland Convention Center, The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and First Energy Stadium – these are just some of the many high-profile projects that are part of Coleman Spohn’s impressive portfolio of work. As a mechanical contracting company, Coleman Spohn provides expertise to state-of-the-art industrial, commercial and institutional facilities.  For Lonnie Coleman, president of Coleman Spohn, it’s exciting to be a big part of the revitalization and refurbishment of Cleveland.   However, he also knows that being a key player in the construction industry comes with significant risk.

Lonnie’s employees are like family, and he wants to do whatever he can to ensure they are safe and his worksites remain accident-free. But he knows he can’t do it alone. That’s why he’s been a member of the Minute Men HR/COSE workers’ comp program for almost 20 years. Initially joining the program for premium savings, Lonnie’s commitment to the program has strengthened because of our ability to work with him side-by-side in managing claims and preventing injuries.

“Working with my team at Minute Men HR/COSE is like having another member on staff – that’s how responsive they are to my business’ needs,” says Lonnie. “My connection to the program is more than a relationship – it’s a partnership. They are just as invested in our success as we are.”

Like Cleveland, business is booming for Coleman Spohn as they are being tapped for new projects and expanding outside the region. As the company continues to grow, Lonnie knows that the Minute Men HR/COSE workers’ comp team will be there right alongside him, helping to remove barriers that stand in the way.   He also appreciates the work COSE and The Greater Cleveland Partnership do to stimulate unparalleled investment and opportunity for the business community, making Ohio a better place to live, work and play.
