A rate change affecting most of Florida’s Workers’ Compensation Classification Codes will become effective on January 1, 2019.
- While the rate change for each code will differ, the average rate decrease for all classes is 13.8%.
- Consistent improvement in loss experience is the primary driver underlying this rate decrease. More specifically, a long-term decline in claim frequency has continued to more than offset moderate increases in claims severity.
- Your rates will change on your Workers’ Compensation Policy Effective Date, rather than being effective for you on 1/1/19.
