What exactly is workers compensation? Workers compensation is a state-mandated, "no-fault" insurance system that pays benefits to workers injured on the job to cover medical care, supplement lost wages, and to settle any permanent disability claims. In return, employers are generally entitled to immunity from civil lawsuits that employees might have as a result of their on-the-job injuries.

How are WC premiums calculated? Each occupation is generally assigned a risk classification, determined by two historical factors: the frequency of on-the-job injuries within a particular occupation and the average severity Blake Wheeler Stanley Cup Finals jerseys of injuries suffered. Severity is measured Blake Wheeler Stanley Cup Finals jerseys by the medical costs (to return a worker back to the workplace) and any payments made directly to the injured employee (in connection with benefits provided through the workers’ compensation system).

To arrive at a base rate for workers' compensation insurance in California, each risk classification is translated into a dollar amount, which is then multiplied by 1% per $100 of the total payroll for that employee. For example, an office clerk’s compensation rate could be calculated at roughly $1.25 per every $100 that employee’s payroll may total.? If the office clerk is paid $500 per week, the WC insurance premium for that employee costs an employer roughly $6.25 per week.

The base premium for your policy is then multiplied by your experience modification (ex mod) to get your actual premium.? For example: If the total base premium for your entire policy is $5,000 per year and your ex mod is 1.2%, the total premium would be $5,000 multiplied by 1.2%, or $6,000.?
