This Workers Comp Myth Costs Your Business $1,000’S Every Year

Over 60 percent of middle-market and small businesses are overcharged for their worker’s compensation insurance.

One of the primary reasons for this is their mindset toward the product.

If you still look at worker’s comp like insurance, .then you’re most likely part of 60 percent being overcharged.

Why are you being overcharged for your worker’s comp?

Well, one of the primary reasons is more philosophical than technical. Most business owners and CFOs don’t realize worker’s comp should be considered a financing mechanism for injured employees.

What does that mean?

You’re paying into what essentially becomes a fund to front the cost of employee injuries.

When an employee gets injured, and your worker’s comp policy pays out for the injured employee's expenses, your organization is charged over the next three years through your Experience Mod Factor.

When we think about worker’s comp more as a financing mechanism than an insurance tool, it becomes clear that our goal should not just be shopping our insurance and looking for a slightly lower price.

The key is to address employee-related issues creating and injuries.

  • Why are our employees getting hurt?
  • Why are they not coming back to work?
  • Do you have a recovery or return to work program?
  • Do you have a light-duty program?
  • Are you educating your employees at the time of hire about your safety regulations and how safety plays a role in your organization’s culture?

Crafting a culture that focuses on communication, early reporting of injuries, and hiring a safety advisor, are just a few things your business can do to begin addressing employee injuries.

The idea here is that when you focus on employee safety and not just on the premiums, you can drastically improve the overall cost of your insurance program.

reducing total cost of risk

That’s how you improve your total cost of risk over the long term.

We’re talking about substantial and dramatic improvements in your total cost of risk. Still, it only comes from focusing on employee safety, limiting injuries, and, when the wounds do happen, having a culture that reports those injuries quickly and gets those people back to work as soon as possible.

These types of processes and programs take work; they take guidance.

That is what we do here at Rogue Risk.

People want to be safe. They don’t want to work in dangerous environments.
