Benchmarking Using OSHA Statistics

How Do Insurance Companies Determine Your Premiums Today

Using OSHA's Incidence Rates are a good metric to compare your company’s safety performance against a national or state averages. This comparison is a safety benchmark to gauge performance with other companies in the same business group and to make an “apples to apples” comparison. Different business groups and industries will have different average rates due to a number of factors.

To view specific incident rates from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics from 2015 to compare your rate with the same business group look here: BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS PDF,  We have also included a overall comparison guide for you to use.

OSHA requires that an OSHA 300A Summary be completed and posted every year.  For employers over 20 employees, you may need to submit your OSHA Log records electronically.  Reach out to us to learn more about our free OSHA Record Keeping Software you can use to maintain your OSHA 300 (incident log), 300A (annual summary) & 301 (accident investigation), notify key company people of an injury, notify your insurance company of the injury, and electronically report to OSHA when required to do so.

The OSHA 300 log and 300A Summary will have the information needed to find your rate. Use the tool below to calculate your company’s rate. It is important to make sure you’re recording actual recordable injuries. The criteria can be confusing and circumstances around an injury make it complex. Do not over report injuries on your OSHA 300 log or submit your logs to owners with incorrect data. If you have questions or need assistance, our team can provide a recordable injury and 300 Log analysis.

    David, I just can't thank you enough to finding and returning to us the $27,438 in overcharges from our last two years of audits.  I only wish we had been allowed to go back to the prior years to recover money.  More importantly, you provided us with a process so that we can avoid being overcharged in the future by the insurance companies.

    I just cannot thank you enough for helping us to take control of our work comp.  In addition to making my life easier by helping to manage our claims, your team helped us create a very strong safety culture.  Our injuries are down significantly, but more importantly, you helped reduce our work comp premium by over $80,000 a year.

    David, you and your East Coast Risk Management team blew us away. First, your team recovered over $42,000 in overcharges that my agent allowed to happen. Second, over the next 7 months you overhauled our safety programs and hiring process. Your injury management team minimized a potentially uncontrollable and ugly claim which would have cost us tens of thousands of dollars in additional premium and rehiring costs. Third, your negotiations with our insurance company resulted in an additional $49,387 (44%) reduction in my workers compensation renewal premium. We figure you have added over $100,000 to our bottom line in just 1 year. Thanks!!!!

    I first became acquainted with David’s knowledge of Workers’ Compensation when I attended a seminar in 2007. I took the opportunity to meet with David to discuss better ways we could handle not only our Work Comp claims, but how we needed to drastically overhaul our HR processes. The Benefits have been multitude. I have great confidence in ultimately can make a company more profitable.

    9 months ago I hired Duncan and their East Coast Risk Management to implement their Risk Solutions Program. As a result, I just saved $57,494 on my insurance renewal - That's 42%. Duncan met with me and my employees, toured my facility and put together an aggressive Risk Solutions Business Plan. They started implementing immediately and are in our plant several times each and every month.

    Duncan found that my experience modifier was WRONG!!!!  Not one of over a dozen plus agents that I spoke to previously saw that!  They were able to get my experience modifier corrected, and force my insurance companies to return over $86,000 to me! They leveraged what safety changes they implemented and obtain an insurance policy at our renewal that was over $100,000 lower. In a span of 4 months, they put almost $200,000 back in my pocket!
