What Is Workers' Compensation Insurance?

Workers' compensation insurance is a legally required policy that covers employee medical expenses, wage replacement, and employer liability in case of job-related injury or illness. It protects both employers and employees by providing financial support for workplace incidents.

How Premiums Are Calculated

Premiums are based on your payroll, industry risk classification, and state rates. Each employee class has a class code with a base rate per $100 of payroll, which is adjusted by your Experience Modification Factor (EMF) based on claims history.
