Michigan Workers Compensation Insurance: 5 Factors That Impact Your Workers Comp Insurance Premium

📞 Call or Text at: 248-459-3045

What are the five factors that impact your workers compensation insurance premium?

Industry: Different industries have varying levels of risk. A construction company will have higher premiums than a mortgage company due to the physical nature of the work, which poses more inherent risks compared to an office-based business.
Payroll: The premium is based on the total payroll expenses. This is because it's directly related to the potential exposure of risk and the number of employees covered. A higher payroll means higher premiums.
Claims History: Insurers take into account the company's history of workers' compensation claims. A higher frequency of claims or severe incidents could lead to increased premiums, as it indicates a higher risk profile for the insurance company.
Job Classification: Jobs with higher inherent risks are charged higher premiums. For instance, a clerical worker in an office will have lower premiums compared to a construction worker or someone involved in manual labor.
Experience Modification Factor (MOD): This factor is based on a company's claim history in comparison to similar companies in the industry. A good safety record can lead to lower premiums, while a poor record will increase costs.
