Florida Small Businesses Can Expect Additional Reduction in Workers’ Comp Rates

Florida Small Businesses Can Expect Additional Reduction in Workers’ Comp Rates

September 2, 2025

The NCCI proposed a 6.9% decrease for new and renewal policies

The National Council on Compensation Insurance (NCCI) proposed a 6.9% decrease for workers’ compensation insurance rates on new and renewal policies, effective January 1, 2026. The rate decrease is pending approval from Florida’s Insurance Commissioner. If approved, this will be the 9th consecutive year of reductions, following a 1% decrease in 2025 and a 15.1% decrease in 2024.

NFIB has advocated for rate reductions for Florida’s small businesses as owners continue to manage inflationary business costs.

The Office of Insurance Regulation (OIR) will hold a public hearing later this month and will either approve or request a modification of the rate request in October or early November.
