West Virginia Workers Comp Rates

West Virginia workers' compensation rates remain low in 2016.

Rates on Workers Comp Insurance are good in the state of West Virginia. As of 2014 they were 26 percent lower than the national average, which makes West Virginia the 8th cheapest state in the country to purchase coverage. One main reason for these low rates is the strong partnership the state has with the national Council on Compensation Insurance (NCCI). West Virginia Partners with NCCI to determine rates on workers comp coverage and to be the assigned risk provider for the state fund. This partnership keeps rates fairly low and prevents West Virginia Employers from paying too much for their coverage.

Still many employers do not take advantage of all the programs available to help them get the best coverage for their businesses needs. At Workers Compensation Shop.com we specialize in helping businesses find work comp coverage at rock-bottom prices. We use a network of more than a dozen insurance providers to shop your insurance and get your business the best value in the industry.
