Here are some workers compensation basics;

  • It's payroll based.... Workers compensation policies are priced on a rate per 100 of remuneration (some people think this means payroll but in fact it is broader than just payroll).
  • It's an auditable policy.... At the begining of your policy you pay a "deposit premium" based on the payroll you project for the policy period. After the policy period expires your records will be audited and the actual remuneration for the expired policy will be determined. After the audit you will receive an audit statement where you will be presented with a credit for return premium or an invoice for additional premium due.
  • It's job classification driven.... Over 700 job classifications are used in classifying your business.
  • Control your workers compensation cost;
    • Use accurate payroll (remuneration) to set up your policy.
    • Use payroll separation if allowed.
    • Monitor your claim activity.
    • Apply for all policy credits you're allowed.
    • Setup a safety program.
    • Monitor certificates.
  • Some things to watch out for;
    • Are they Employees or Subcontractors? You should know before it's audit time!
    • Improper payroll separation.
    • Placing your coverage through organizations that seem to be insurance companies but in truth are not.
    • Out of state exposures.
    • Volunteer coverage.
  • It's an experience rated policy.... Watch your claims! Work with an experienced independent agent and buy your workers compensation coverage from an insurance company that understands what you do for business!
