Workers' Compensation Cost Reduction Approved
The New York State Department of Financial Services has approved an 11.7% reduction in workers' compensation loss cost rates. Loss costs are the actual claim expenses for workers' compensation coverage established by New York's Insurance Department and serve as the basis for setting future workers’ compensation premiums. On a system estimated to be approximately $10 billion in size, a reduction of this magnitude could translate to employer savings of up to $1 billion annually.

"I appreciate Rochester Chamber’s issue advocacy work for members. A bill was introduced in the New York State legislature that could have negatively impacted my organization if passed. Rochester Chamber’s advocacy efforts and assistance in connecting me with key legislators and staff was invaluable, and well worth annual dues."
