Workers' Compensation is a form of insurance. Just as collisions drive up car insurance, more workplace injuries and injured workers being on the system longer than necessary drive up the costs of workers' compensation, which in turn drive up rates.

Don't pay the full rate next year! CHOICES is an incentive program that will give you a break while helping businesses address the underlying causes of high costs to the workers' compensation system.
