Worker's Compensation Insurance |
|
|
| Workers' Compensation laws are designed to ensure
that employees who are injured or disabled on the job are provided with
fixed monetary awards, eliminating the need for litigation. These laws
also provide benefits for dependents of those workers who are killed
because of work-related accidents or illnesses. Some laws also protect
employers and fellow workers by limiting the amount an injured employee
can recover from an employer and by eliminating the liability of
co-workers in most accidents.
State Workers Compensation statutes establish this framework for most employment. Federal statutes are limited to federal employees or those workers employed in some significant aspect of interstate commerce. Your past three (3) years of claims are used as the basis for determining your modification rating. A modification rating of 100 is a dollar for dollar exchange rate; meaning, the insurance company expects to pay out one dollar for every dollar the company pays in through policy payments. Ideally, a company will be below the 100 rating, unfortunately, scores of 140 or 150 are becoming very common. Hundreds of thousands of dollars are spent by companies every year for claims that should be closed or need to be put "back on track". Proper and regular review of your company's claims history can greatly reduce your annual premium by closing out these old and overlooked claims. Additionally, once a proper auditing procedure is in place, it assists the insurance company's claims adjuster to expedite claims.
