Workers' Compensation Class Codes Related to Landscaping

Employees are grouped into classification codes based on what they do for their job. The National Council on Compensation Insurance (NCCI) currently utilizes nearly 800 class codes to help insurance companies categorize employees. Insurance companies create a manual rate for each class code in order to price a policy.

Properly classifying workers is an important part of the quote process. Mis-classified employers may end up paying too much for coverage or owing too much after an audit.

Class Code 0042 | Landscaping- All Employees

Businesses primarily engaged in providing landscaping and hard-scaping services at homes and commercial properties. Landscaping services often include beautification work associated with laying out grounds. This includes retaining walls, stone patios, planting trees and shrubs and erosion control. Clearing and grading may be necessary to a small degree. Sod installation is also included under this NCCI class code.

Landscaping services are often provided in conjunction with lawn care services: class code 9102. A business will need to keep clear payroll records documenting work performed in each class code in order to divide payroll during an annual workers' comp audit. Otherwise an insurance company will apply the most expensive class code to the payroll.

Landscaping services is a separate operation from excavation- 6219. Excavation involves changing the contour of the land and may include back-filling dirt. Tree pruning and trimming is also a separate operation and generally falls under tree service- 0601.

Alternative State Class Codes for Landscaping:

Many states often use special class codes, other than the class codes recommended by NCCI, for certain industries.

What Does Workers' Comp Cover?

What does workers comp cover?

Workers' comp coverage protects employees when injured. It makes good financial sense for both parties.

Injuries and accidents happen. A workers' comp policy is a no-fault system that pays for these accidents and claims. It's required by law in most states.
  • Loss of income for employees unable to perform job duties
  • Medical expenses for employees injured on the job
  • Retraining expenses for employees unable to return
  • Permanent injury or disability for lasting injuries
  • Survivor benefits if employees are killed on the job

Coverage does not protect employers from everything. Sometimes employees and employers can be negligent.

Workmans comp does not cover negligence
In some instances, workers' compensation coverage will not protect employers or employees from the legal liability resulting from a workplace injury.
  • Injuries resulting from a violation of the law
  • Incidents resulting from employees' use fo drugs or alcohol
  • Injuries that did not occur in connection with the job
  • Clear company policy violations
  • Injuries that did not occur in connection with the job
