| Budget/funding
of workers’ compensation in Oregon |
WCD
administers the state’s laws and rules governing workers’ compensation. The
division’s operating budget comes from a dedicated fund that is not part of the
state’s general fund. The director of DCBS
imposes an assessment on all insurers, self-insured employers, and self-insured employer
groups. The assessment is levied against the insurers’ direct earned premium and
a simulated earned premium for self-insured employers. These assessments are deposited
into the Consumer & Business Services Fund.
No General Fund revenue is used to support the division’s budget.
Effective January 1, 2013, the assessment will be set at an amount
equal to 6.4 percent of the premiums charged for workers' compensation
coverage. |
