A business must make a correct classification of itself according to definitions determined by the <a title=\"About NCCI\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncci.com\/NCCIMain\/Pages\/Default.aspx\" target=\"_blank\">National Council of Compensation Insurance<\/a> (NCCI) or the respective State Rating Bureau. If classified incorrectly its rating may cause over or under rating the employer\u2019s risk.<\/p>\n<p>Employees are further classified by the type of work they do in their respective workplace. For example, a driver is classified according to his\/her job functions, but that classification is also categorized by the risk of the industry sector. A driver employed by an armored car service is at different risk than a driver for a retail store.<\/p>\n<p>Getting these classifications right and keeping them current is vital to managing your business workers\u2019 compensation insurance premium rate.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HRIS Reliability<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>An HRIS program brings credibility and accuracy to your payroll audits. But, it is only as infallible as your input and updates: Here are some examples\u2026<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Complete a correct and current list of employees on staff.<\/li>\n<li>Identify employees as regular, probationary, temporary, full-time, part-time, and exempt or non-exempt.<\/li>\n<li>Locate or prepare job analyses and descriptions for all work positions.<\/li>\n<li>Identify the minimum number of hours required of workers to be considered full-time.<\/li>\n<li>Determine how accurately your business has classified employees as exempt.<\/li>\n<li>Confirm that Independent Contractors are clearly assigned.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Your HRIS software is an enormous help in sorting, storing, and reporting the data auditors want to see.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Schedule HRIS Audits<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Still, HRIS can only process that data provided. It is not enough to have confidence in your installation data because there will be changes: turnover, transfers, reassignments, and promotions. Your HRIS program\u2019s value is a function of the regular reviews you schedule and maintain.\u00a0 Make sure you perform the following\u2026<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Enter employee changes accurately and consistently with HRIS implementation directions.<\/li>\n<li>Train employees involved with HRIS interface in need for accuracy and audits.<\/li>\n<li>Plan a quarterly desk audit of HRIS performance. (A desk audit can be a simple review of paperwork and a comparison to the software reports.)<\/li>\n<li>Review your HRIS job classification reports together with your workers\u2019 compensation insurance broker well before soliciting your insurance premium rate.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A good HRIS program can give you a false confidence in its outputs. There is a risk that you will think the quality is self-perpetuating. But, getting your workers\u2019 comp rate right from the beginning and keeping it right is your job. It can be a costly oversight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The premium rate for a business\u2019s workers\u2019 compensation insurance starts with a base count of employees.
