Common questions

Why does payroll classification matter?

Rates vary by the work performed. Accurate duties and payroll allocation help the carrier apply appropriate classifications and reduce audit surprises.

Will the policy be audited?

Many workers’ compensation policies are subject to audit. The carrier determines the audit process and final premium under the policy terms.
