The math behind Cleaning Companies Excess Workers Compensation premiums

For Cleaning Companies, Excess Workers Compensation premium is calculated per $1M layer over SIR. NCCI maintains the rating framework that most carriers use as a starting point, with each carrier layering on its own loss-cost multiplier and credit/debit factors.
