Market Comparison for G L Beaumont Lumber Co

Premium

Worker's Comp premium is based on two key factors - the LCM your carrier has filed to use, and the total payroll you run over the policy term, which is multiplied by the rate to determine premium. Comparing premium to businesses in the same industry and of similar size can indicate how fair your WC insurance provider's costs are relative to the market.

  • Premium is Higher than 78% of peers.
  • In the last year, premium Increased by 12%. While peers Increased an average of 2%.
Needs Attention

LCM Rate

LCMs have the largest effect on your WC costs. Carriers file LCM's which are multiplied with the state approved Loss Costs for your employment classifications to create your policy rates. Carrier Groups have several Carrier Tier's each with their own filing, allowing their underwriters to price aggressively to overly prudent depending on the risk.

  • The LCM of the Current Carrier is Higher than 57% of peers.
  • Shopping around for a carrier that would provide a more competitive tier would make sense.
  • In the last year, LCM Decreased by 23%. While peers Increased an average of 3%.
Needs Attention

We measure relative change (when a business chooses a different WC provider), and market share distribution over a rolling 24 months as compared to it's industry and state level activity to determine how competitive carriers are for your class of business.

  • 21% of peers have changed carriers since last year. Those who did, saw a 8.6% decrease in premium vs those who stayed with their current provider had a 0% decrease, roughly 653x those who stayed with their current provider.
  • Of those who changed carriers, 2.9% increased their LCM vs those who stayed with their current provider who saw a 3.4% increase.
  • Current Carrier's market share is in the 95th percentile at 5.2% of the market.
Needs Attention

OSHA

Most employers with 10 or more employees are required to maintain injury and illness records, known as the 300 log. In the event of an inspection, this information will likely be requested. Even without injury or claim, the proper documentation should be readily available on a location by location basis. These logs are critical but simple to maintain.

  • Businesses with serious and/or repeat violations should be provided with risk management practices to eliminate unnecessary risk and minimize what must exist in current processes.
