Be vigilant about Workers Compensation Insurance!

Imagine having a valued employee get hurt at your workplace.

Now, imagine not having enough workers compensation insurance in place or worse, not having any coverage at all. How would you pay the medical bills? Could you be sued? Could you lose your business?

As you should know, it’s the law to maintain Worker’s Compensation insurance. Don’t find out the hard way by paying a fine to the government!

It’s no surprise that as a fellow business owner, you also view the insurance purchasing experience as a combination of purchasing coverage that provides complete protection (no gaps and sufficient limits) with a price that you can afford.  As an independent Business Protection Strategists, Professional Liability Insurance Group can help guide you so that you purchase the right amount of coverage for your unique business needs.

Did you know?

A Workers Compensation Insurance policy can not be back-dated. So, you need to ensure that there is never a gap in your coverage – not even for one day!

Having insured businesses in New Jersey since 1997, Professional Liability Insurance Group can help save your business a substantial amount of money by examining the following Four Key Areas as they pertain to your business:

1.  Rates:

While workers compensation rates are standard nationwide, depending on carrier, insurance companies apply what they call “deviations, premium discounts or schedule credits” from those rates, up or down depending on the loss experience.

2.  Premium Audit:

When it is time for your annual premium audit, we can make sure you are properly classified and that you maintain your records to receive the most advantageous payroll calculations and classes.

3.  Experience Mod:

We will help make sure your experience mod is an accurate reflection of your claims.

4.  Loss Control:

Establishing a loss control or risk management program where injuries to your employees are minimal because of the safety features used on your premises.

It pays to review your policy yearly with our Business Protection Strategists to make sure you are receiving all of the discounts your business is entitled to. Contact us today and see if you are eligible for a lower premium. Allow us to do the legwork for you.

Surprisingly, the average insurance agent thinks that there are no possible ways to reduce a Worker’s Compensation premium because the rate is set by your state and your payroll determines your premium. But those agents would be wrong. There are two main ways to potentially lower your premium – and a third way if you’re a sole proprietor or a Limited Liability Company.

Ask us how to lower your premium before you pay more than you should again this year.
