Why Slip-and-Fall Claims Cost Janitorial Staffing Agencies More Than Budgeted

Slip-and-fall injuries are the most common type of workers’ compensation claim filed by janitorial and commercial cleaning workers, and they are also the most consistently underestimated.

Common Questions

Answers to the questions we hear most from staffing companies shopping for workers' comp.

Have another question? Contact us →

What do you need from us to quote an account?

For most staffing accounts, we need a completed application, three to five years of valued loss runs, payroll broken out by class code and state, your experience mod worksheet if you have one, and a client list showing where your employees work and what they do. Send what you have. A missing document slows a quote down, but it won't stop one. Download the submission forms →

How long does a quote take?

Most quote requests are answered within 24 to 48 hours. If you're facing a deadline — a client start date, a cancellation notice, or a contract requirement — let us know and we'll move you to the front of the line.

What is an experience mod, and why does it matter so much?

Your experience mod compares your claims history to what's expected for a business with your class codes and payroll size. It's applied directly to your premium, so it can raise or lower your cost regardless of your rates, and it stays with your business even if you change carriers. A high mod also limits which carriers will consider you at all. That's why an account declined elsewhere often needs a broker who knows which carriers still write it.

Where do we look up a class code?

Use our class code lookup for the codes that come up most often in staffing. Keep in mind that class code definitions vary by state, and the final word belongs to each state's rating bureau or agency. The lookup is a starting point for the conversation, not a guarantee of how a carrier will classify your business. Open the class code lookup →
