🚨 BUSINESS OWNERS: Did you know your workplace safety record could be costing you MORE in insurance premiums? 💰
When it comes to Workers' Compensation insurance, there's something called an Experience Modification Rate (E-Mod), and it can have a big impact on what your business pays for coverage!
📊 Here's how it works:
Your E-Mod compares your business's workers' compensation claims history to that of similar businesses in your industry.
✅ Below 1.00 - A better than expected claims history that can help lower your premiums.
➖ At 1.00 - Your claims experience is in line with expectations.
❌ Above 1.00 - Higher than expected claims that can increase your premiums.
💡 Here's an example: If your base Workers' Comp premium is $20,000 and your E-Mod is 1.20, that could mean paying $24,000 instead - a $4,000 difference!
And here's something many business owners don't realize: Multiple smaller claims can sometimes impact your E-Mod more than one large claim!
The good news? Being proactive about workplace safety, employee training, and claims management can make a difference over time.
📣 As an insurance agent, my goal isn't just to help you find coverage - it's to help you understand your insurance, protect your business, and identify opportunities to manage costs.
Whether you're a contractor, own a small business, or manage a growing company, understanding your Workers' Comp coverage is important!
