Practical Workers' Compensation: What You Need To Know

Five-part, on-demand training series. Watch or listen at your convenience. Instructed by Christopher J. Boggs, author of The Insurance Professional's Practical Guide to Workers' Compensation.

When are independent contractors considered employees? What injuries are compensable? Should you add another state to the WC policy? Do you understand and can you explain the experience modification worksheet?

This five-part series provides you with the answers. Statutes, common law, contracts and the human element all work together or in necessary conflict with each other to allow or push the workers' compensation machine to produce the result it was designed for - a safety net for workers injured on the job. This five-part webinar series provides an in depth study on these "moving parts" that make the workers' compensation policy work.

Our Students Love the Training:

"From what I have listened in on - about 3 hours or so is FANTASTIC."

"What a wonderful class you just presented. You are a wealth of knowledge, on point, concise and have great examples to share. You made it easy to understand the material. I sincerely enjoyed listening to you and actually feel like I am walking away with the knowledge that I signed up for. I hope to take additional classes from you in the future."


Course Overview:

You can proceed thru each module at your own pace.
module 1
Course and Scope Rule
Module 1: The Course and Scope Rule and its Gray Areas - Including a Discussion of Compensable Occupational Disease

For an injury to be compensable it must "arise out of and be in the course and scope" of the worker's employment. "Course and scope" is not always black and white; there is sometimes a bit of gray area. This session will illuminate some of the gray areas and guide the participant through some interpretations of "course and scope."
module 2
What is an Employee?
Module 2: Employees, Independent Contractors, General Contractors and Contractual Risk Transfer in Work Comp

Who qualifies as an "employee?" The answer can depend on statute, contract and the facts surrounding the relationship between the worker and the individual or entity making use of the worker's services. Session 2 dissects employee/employer relationships to avoid surprises following a loss or at audit.
module 3
Additional States
Module 3: When to Add Additional States - Extraterritorial Jurisdiction Problems

Potential coverage limit gaps or the complete loss of coverage are possible when employees work in states in which the employer has no specific location. To avoid these gaps or the loss of coverage requires recognition of the problems and knowledge of the available solutions. This session highlights the problems, focuses on the solutions and provides guidelines and rules that should be followed in deciding to name a state.
module 4
Employers' Liability
Module 4: The Surprising Importance of Employers' Liability Protection

Employers' Liability protection is often overlooked or just plain ignored by many agents and brokers. The gaps filled by this coverage are too important to act carelessly when planning this protection. This session provides a new appreciation for the importance of employers' liability protection.
module 5
The Experience Mod Worksheet
Module 5: How to Read, Understand and Explain the Experience Modification Worksheet

Learn the who, what, when, why and how of experience modification. Who is eligible for or required to have an experience modification factor? What is an experience modification factor and why are they used? And the major question, "How are experience mods calculated?"
