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”.

Delaware approves double-digit rate cuts

The Delaware Department of Insurance approved a 21.02% reduction in voluntary market loss costs and a 20.01% cut to residual market rates.

Rates, loss costs and expected loss factors the department approved take effect Dec. 1.

The Delaware Compensation Rating Bureau agreed to lower the rates after a discussion with the state’s ratepayer advocate, the department said in a statement.

Insurance Commissioner Trinidad Navarro said the fifth consecutive rate decrease is a result of employer efforts to improve workplace safety.
