Talking Points

For the Agent

These are points that might help guide an agent as they look to approach a prospect.

  • Increasing LCM and decreasing market share may indicate carrier is tightening underwriting guidelines and/or has written higher risk accounts that they are less willing to fight for.
Needs Attention

Premium

Worker's Comp premium is based on two key factors - the LCM your carrier has filed to use, and the total payroll you run over the policy term, which is multiplied by the rate to determine premium. Comparing premium to businesses in the same industry and of similar size can indicate how fair your WC insurance provider's costs are relative to the market.

  • Premium is in-line with peers, in the 63rd percentile.
  • In the last year, premium Increased by 21%. While peers Increased an average of 0%.
Needs Attention

LCM Rate

LCMs have the largest effect on your WC costs. Carriers file LCM's which are multiplied with the state approved Loss Costs for your employment classifications to create your policy rates. Carrier Groups have several Carrier Tier's each with their own filing, allowing their underwriters to price aggressively to overly prudent depending on the risk.

  • The LCM of the Current Carrier is Very Good, in the 20th percentile compared to peers.
  • In the last year, LCM Increased by 12%. While peers Increased an average of 3%.
