Workers’ Compensation
Most employers are required to carry Workers' Compensation coverage for their employees with only a select few states not requiring such coverage. At Optima we believe in shopping the market to find you the best pricing available through our setup to provide you with Pay-As-You-Go Workers' Comp Coverage.
In setting up Pay-As-You-Go, we will calculate the necessary premiums for each pay period and remit that payment directly to the carrier. This allows for an accurate payment, making your annual audit a breeze.
| Pay-As-You-Go Program | Traditional Policy | |
|---|---|---|
| Deposit/Down Payment | No Deposit/No Down Payment | 25% Minimum Deposit |
| Premium Calculation | On Actual Payroll at Each Pay Period | Estimated Based on Projected |
| Reports | No Reports to Complete | Monthly/Quarterly Audit Reports |
| Audit | Minimal Adjustments, Premiums Paid on Actual Payroll | On-Site Audit, Documentation, Additional Premium Due or Refund |
