Minnesota Workers Compensation Insurance Companies have the ability to offer discounts off of their insurance policy rating. The insurance company has the ability to review previous loss history and review the Business applying for insurance and offer discounts off of the prime insurance rate. These discounts could be anywhere from 5 to 40%. It helps to work with an experienced insurance agent for your work comp policy. An experience insurance agent will know how to leverage the potential available discount for a business and apply the experience modification factor.
An established business may have an Experience Modification Factor. A modification factor is primarily based on previous claim experience. This is set by the Minnesota Workers Compensation Association. You must pay a minimum amount in insurance premium before you can qualify for a Mod Factor. Generally, $5000 in Premium is the minimum amount you must pay annually to be assigned a Modification Factor. If you have relatively few claims in the last 5 years, you may have a credited Mod Factor, where you may receive an additional discount off of your Work Comp Policy. If you have had claims, more specifically larger claims, you may have a debited Mod Factor and you will be automatically charged more for your policy.
