5 Rates
The rate that appears on the payroll report is generally a rate per $100 of gross payroll; however, there are exceptions, such as domestic workers, board members, and commissioners of public employees.
6 Payroll
Enter the amount of gross payroll for the reporting period in the appropriate classification code. Please round payroll
to the highest dollar. The payroll submitted on the payroll report will be used to determine your premium, so please
make sure the information is accurate. Report uninsured subcontractors. If you do not have a current certificate of
workers compensation insurance for subcontractors, contractors, or other contract labor, report their payments in the
class code with regular employee payroll.
7 Sign the report
Sign the report and return it to our office.
Overtime credit
If proper records are kept, overtime wages can be reported as straight time wages. The employer’s records must show separately by
employee, and in summary by class of work, the amount paid for overtime.
Tip: If an employee works 40 regular hours and 10 overtime hours, multiply the total hours worked (50) by the
straight time rate to determine the reportable payroll.
If overtime is paid at the rate of 1 1/2 time, reduce the total paid overtime by 1/3.
Regular Pay
Overtime Pay at 1.5
1/3 of OT Pay
(40 hours at $10 per hour)
(20 hours at $15 per hour)
(40 hours at $10 per hour)
Regular Pay + OT Pay - 1/3 of
OT Pay = Amount to report
$400
$300
$100
$400 + $300 - $100 = $600
If overtime is paid at the rate of double time, reduce the total paid overtime by 1/2.
Regular Pay
Overtime Pay at 2
1/2 of OT Pay
(40 hours at $10 per hour)
(20 hours at $20 per hour)
($400 divided by 2 = $200)
Regular Pay + OT Pay - 1/2 of
OT Pay = Amount to report
$400
$400
$200
$400 + $400 - $200 = $600
Subcontractors and other labor
When your business engages in the use of subcontractors, the subcontractor, for workers compensation purposes, may be
considered a reportable subcontractor or an independent contractor. Determining whether a worker is a reportable subcontractor or
an independent contractor depends solely on the facts surrounding each work situation. If you need to report payroll for a
subcontractor, please call your underwriter or auditor for assistance with determining the correct amount to report.
Owners, partners, and officers
If an owner, partner, or officer is covered on the policy, their name will appear on the payroll report, and their payroll must be
reported. If the owners’, partners’, or officers’ name does not appear on the payroll report, do not include their payroll.
The classification code used to report the covered owners’, partners’, or officers’ payroll is assigned by the underwriter at the
inception of the policy or at the time the coverage endorsement is added to the policy.
Covered owners’, partners’, and officers’ reportable payroll is subject to minimum and maximum requirements. If you have questions
about how much payroll to report for covered owners, partners, or officers, contact your underwriter at the State Insurance Fund or
send an e-mail to [email protected].
Tip: If the owners’, partners’, or officers’ names do not appear in the description section of the payroll report,
do not report their payroll.
Classification codes
If you have multiple classification codes assigned to your policy, make sure you understand each one so you can separate and
report your payroll correctly. Generally, the entire payroll of an employee is reported to a single classification code, but there can be
exceptions. The National Council on Compensation (NCCI) rules allow for an employee’s payroll to be divided between two or more
classification codes under certain circumstances in some industries.
If your underwriter or auditor has explained that you are eligible for payroll division, you may divide the payroll between appropriate
class codes provided all of the following conditions are met:
† The payroll allocation (number of hours and amount of payroll for each type of work) is shown separately in your original
entry records.
† The allocation is based on actual payroll incurred in each operation.
† The allocation is not based on an estimate or a percentage.
† Allocations are totaled and summarized monthly or quarterly by class of work .
If you choose not to maintain your records to take advantage of payroll division, please report the payroll for any one employee in
the highest rated classification that represents any part of their work.
Tip: Class codes 8810 Clerical Office Employees and 5606 Contractor Executive Supervisor are not
available for a division of payroll.
If you have any questions, contact your underwriter at [email protected] or auditor at [email protected].
