In Montana, workers' compensation rates are more expensive than the national average. In 2022, the average rates were about 15 percent higher than the rest of the country. Rates have been on a steady decline over the past 5 years. They are expected to decrease slightly in 2024.
Montana is an NCCI state like most other states. This means that NCCI administers employers' experience modifiers and collects all data for the state including claims, class codes, premiums, and payroll. They analyze this data and make annual recommendations to carriers and to the MT Department of Insurance. Every Insurance company is required to file their rates with the state for approval each year.
Workers' compensation rates will still vary for the same class codes in Montana because insurance companies can apply policy credits and debits up to 25% to adjust their filed rates. More discounts may also be added to a policy depending on the size of payroll and overall claims experience.

Employee claims are reported to NCCI and statistically compared with all other similar type businesses using the same class code in each state. An Experience Modification Rate may apply to your business after a few years of coverage.
Insurance company underwriters are permitted to make premium rate adjustments based on unique factors about your business, safety practices, and management experience in most states.
Insurance companies may apply policy credits and debits to the base manual rates. Additional discounts can be applied to premium as the total payroll & premium increases.
