One of the reasons I became a Work Comp Broker 15 years ago (after owning a nationwide staffing co for 16 years,) was because I found so many G/L and P/L agents, despite their best intentions, did not have a thorough knowledge of the staffing industry and the various staffing work comp programs.
Most agents often just referred clients to the inefficient and expensive State Funds. This resulted in many staffing companies not selecting the best or most cost effective work comp solution. So I started “work comp staffing solutions” to educate as many staffing companies as possible about their work comp options.
This link below is to a short 3 minute video that will make you a much more educated consumer of work comp for your staffing company.

We are often asked by our staffing work comp solution clients this question. According to OSHA, “To ensure continuity of operations of essential functions, CDC advises that critical infrastructure workers may be permitted to continue work following potential exposure to COVID-19, provided they remain asymptomatic and additional precautions are implemented to protect them and the community.”
As more workers get Covid-19, it is ever more important that your clients and your employees follow best practices for minimizing the impact of COVID -19 while working for your clients. Here is link to the OSHA report that will help you follow best practices.

The short answer is “maybe.” AI researchers and clinicians are in the early stages of developing testing and rehab measurement tools that can help encourage some workers to get back to their jobs in less time.
Researchers reported that robots with machine learning capabilities have the potential to accurately reproduce the physical activities workers experience while on the job.
“This research will hopefully improve the assessment of work ability and rehabilitation treatments, and lead to safer and more sustainable return-to-work efforts after injury” according to the article below. As the rehabilitation processes and tools get more sophisticated, injured workers can return to work sooner; thus decreasing the comp costs of the injured worker’s benefits.
Here is the link to a the full article.

We are getting more and more questions about where work comp rates are heading in 2021 as a result of the pandemic.
A handful of states, including California and New York, have introduced bills requiring compensation for first responders, health care workers or what are considered critical workers rendered critically ill by COVID-19. A close look at data from the National Council on Compensation Insurance (NCCI) provide estimates on costs to employers for first responders and health care workers that could go as high as $16 billion. The cost for non-essential workers could range from between $2.7 billion to $80 billion for all states NCCI tracks data. See the NCCI report below.

This could mean higher costs for staffing companies as they try to navigate what the various states are doing.

Lately we have found that many carriers are electing not to provide work comp coverage for staffing/contract positions related to the COVID -19. These positions typically include (direct and indirect exposures) related to:
- Medical personnel in hospitals and clinics.
- Temperature takers at access points for stores and offices.
- Cleaning crews at hospitals with COVID patients.
- Other essential medical related workers.
