Make Work Comp Work For You

How healthy is your experience mod?

Workers’ compensation is not just an employee benefit. It’s something your company is required by law to provide.  That said, workers compensation is also the most transparent type of business insurance, and the type of coverage where employers have the greatest degree of control over their premiums.

Once a business reaches a certain size, it develops an Experience Modification Rate (EMR).  The EMR directly impacts the premiums each employer pays for workers compensation, but many employers don’t realize a key fact about the EMR:  it is calculated in a way to heavily tax reactive approaches to work comp claims. 

In other words, proactive claims management (and prevention) can save substantial premium dollars – that’s where Kingsgate excels.  Through a proactive approach, Kingsgate will help employers drive down their EMR and reduce their workers compensation premiums over time.  Kingsgate will be in your corner throughout the claim process advising you what is in your best interest as an employer.

In addition to helping employers attain their minimum EMR, Kingsgate also assists with audits and audit disputes.  Are your employees classified correctly on your workers compensation
policy?  If you have employees that have been misclassified on a prior WC policy term, it is possible to recover any premiums an employer may have overpaid due to a misclassification.
