Workers’ Compensation for Builders: Key Considerations and Common Pitfalls

July 30, 2024 12:00 PM - 12:45 PM (EDT)

Description

Join us for another of BRAGB’s popular Lunch & Learn presentations.  This Lunch & Learn brings two of Greater Boston’s leading property and casualty insurance brokers specializing in the building and construction industries (and BRAGB members) together to share their knowledge on the various considerations that builders need to be aware of when engaging with their Workers” Compensation insurance program(s).  Hear about best practices and common pitfalls and real-life examples surrounding all aspects of the Workers’ Compensation insurance marketplace and ecosystem in Massachusetts.  

This session will cover the following highlights:

  1. How is coverage priced?  Discussion of common builders’ classification codes and rates.
  2. What is a deviation, and how do you get one (if possible)?
  3. How do claims impact Workers’ Compensation pricing? 
  4. What is an Experience Modification Rating (EMR or “mod”) factor, what is an ARAP, and how are they calculated?
  5. Common audit issues, mistakes, and how to avoid them.
  6. Common claim issues, mistakes, and how to avoid them.
  7. State of the Workers’ Compensation insurance marketplace in MA.
