Study Finds Massachusetts Workers’ Compensation Rates Among Lowest in U.S.


The Division of Insurance applauded the study reminding us that rates in Massachusetts have decreased more than 19.7 percent since 2007.
A new study from the Oregon Department of Consumer and Business finds that Massachusetts employers pay some of the lowest workers’ compensation rates in the nation. In light of the Division of Insurance’s recent denial of the Worker’s Compensation Rating and Inspection Bureaus request for a rate increase, Commissioner Joseph Murphy was pleased with the news.
