Workers' compensation laws in Virginia require employers to carry workers’ compensation insurance if they have two or more employees. This includes full-time, part-time, seasonal or temporary workers, minors, trainees, immigrants and family members.
Workers’ compensation protects employees hurt on the job by covering medical expenses, rehabilitation costs and lost wages.
Subcontractors’ employees are also included when counting the total number of employees. Unlike some states, this applies regardless of whether the subcontractor has workers’ comp coverage for its employees.
Executive officers may reject coverage, but they must give proper notice to the employer and the Virginia Workers’ Compensation Commission.
Virginia workers' compensation rates are among the lowest in the nation, paying less than $1.50 per $100 in payroll, according to a 2018 report by the Oregon Department of Consumer and Business Services. The state ranked 41st in the U.S. for workers’ compensation cost.
Like many states, Virginia uses the National Council on Compensation Insurance (NCCI) to collect workplace data and set rates. NCCI collects loss, premium and payroll data, and recommends rates. Rates are set by class code, or industry. This base rate is multiplied by company payroll, and then Experience Modifier and other discounts may be applied by an insurance carrier to calculate workers' compensation insurance prices.
