Workers' compensation class codes

A class code describes exposure, not price. Each page below sets out what the classification captures, the misclassification auditors correct most often, and how the payroll base is assembled — the three inputs an employer actually controls. Loss costs are filed and approved state by state, then modified by your own claims history, so no national rate is published here.
