Group Discount Programs
Workers' compensation insurance is just one of many expenses that employers have to consider. You can make it a smaller part of your budget by joining a group discount program, also called a purchasing group.
Purchasing groups allow employers in similar industries to reduce their premiums by purchasing their coverage as a group. If you join a group, you get:
- A premium discount. Most groups offer discounts between 10 and 11 percent.
- A safety plan designed for your industry. By preventing accidents, you can lower your claim costs.
- Potential dividends. Policyholders who control their losses may receive a monetary reward in the form of a dividend. Purchasing group members may also qualify for an additional group dividend if the group has favorable results.
