How Long Does My Workers Compensation Policy Last?

Worker’s Compensation policies are for a one-year period. At the end of the year, the insurance carrier will conduct an audit of your payroll to determine if jobs were properly classified and all payroll paid has been reported. The will cross reference the employer 941 and state unemployment tax returns.
Once the audit is completed the employer receives a notice of either a refund or additional premium due.
It is very important to have someone review the audit results as many times the auditor will misclassify jobs which can cause an increase in premiums. A knowledgeable HR professional can assist you with the audit review.
