North Dakota workers' compensation rates lowest in the U.S.
Most monopolistic workers compensation systems have historically failed and the state has been forced to join NCCI and allow private insurance companies to compete within the state. North Dakota has proven to be an exception to this rule.
According to a recent report released by the Oregon Department of Consumer and Business Services, North Dakota was listed as the lowest rates on workers comp in the country. The report boasts North Dakota rates at 55% of the national median for 2024. State rates were a whopping 10% lower than the next two least expensive states,

Workers Comp Rates are an Art & Science
What influences my workers comp insurance cost?
Your State & Class Codes
Insurance companies file their "base manual rates" for approval with each state for all class codes. Rate recommendations are generally made to the state and carriers annually by the National Council on Compensation Insurance.
Your Claims or Losses
Employee claims are reported to NCCI and statistically compared with all other similar type businesses using the same class code in each state. An Experience Modification Rate may apply to your business after a few years of coverage.
Prior Experience & Coverage
Insurance company underwriters are permitted to make premium rate adjustments based on unique factors about your business, safety practices, and management experience in most states.
Policy Credits and Debits
Insurance companies may apply policy credits and debits to the base manual rates. Additional discounts can be applied to premium as the total payroll & premium increases.
Smart Agents with expertise in workers' compensation insurance utilize this information to negotiate your insurance rates with underwriters. A good narrative about your business helps insurance companies justify a better price.
