Delaware business owners must pay more to insure employees for on-the-job injuries. Employers are required to carry workers’ compensation insurance to safeguard workers who are killed, injured or become ill as a result of their duties. Higher risk occupations mean higher premiums for business owners.
Delaware premiums for regular voluntary market customers will go up 14.6 percent, and rates for clients in the residual market will increase by 19 percent.
Delaware Insurance Commissioner Karen Weldin Stewart approved an increase in premiums for workers' compensation insurance Jan. 4; the new amounts are retroactive to Dec. 1, 2012.
