How does a policyholder qualify for an experience rating?
-
+

Experience modifiers are designed to give businesses a financial incentive for maintaining safer work environments. Modifiers predict an employer’s future losses by looking at their past loss experience.

 

The figure is based upon payroll and claim information for the past three policy years, excluding the current year. Actual losses are compared with expected losses for other businesses with similar job classifications and payrolls. In general, an employer with better than average experience receives a credit rating, while an employer with worse than average experience receives a debit rating. A risk will qualify for an experience rating if: The payrolls developed during the last year of the experience period produced at least a $10,000.00 premium or the payrolls developed during the last two or more years of the experience period produced an average annual premium of at least $5,000.00.
