BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

Comp rate decrease announced for Delaware

Delaware

Delaware’s workers compensation rates will decrease for the third year in a row, Insurance Commissioner Trinidad Navarro said Monday.

Businesses in the state will see an average decrease of 12.75% in the residual market and an average decrease of 13.29% in the voluntary market, Mr. Navarro said in a statement. However, actual policy changes may vary depending on various factors including class codes or insureds, according to the commissioner. 

The Delaware Compensation Rating Bureau approved the workers compensation rate decreases last week after the Department of Insurance’s independent actuaries and the state’s ratepayer advocate reviewed the proposal.

The decrease will take effect Dec. 1.
