Workers' Compensation Codes Related to Salons and Spas
Employees are grouped into classification codes based on their job duties and work functions. The National Council on Compensation Insurance (NCCI) currently utilizes nearly 800 class codes to help insurance companies and agents categorize employees for rating purposes. Insurance companies set a base manual rate for each class code in order to begin pricing a policy.
Properly classifying workers is an important part of the quote process. Mis-classified employees can cost small businesses thousands of dollars. You could end up paying too much for coverage or owing more money after an annual audit.
Class Code 9586 | Beauty Salons
Beauty salons and spas vary significantly in the range of service and products offered. Class code 9586 is a broad classification. It applies to most personal grooming services for men and women. Salon and spa services can apply treatment to all parts of the body. Services typically include beauty parlors, hair stylists, barber shops, tanning salons, nail salons, day spas, tattoo parlors, massage parlors and make-over spas.
A typical hair salon requires very little underwriting. Spas that engage in massage, tattoos, piercings and permanent make-up receive more underwriting scrutiny due the the potential risks related to these services. A good narrative about owners experience and business practices will often help with underwriting and reduce the cost of coverage.
When massage service and tanning beds are operated as separate businesses, or they are offered as part of a health club or gym, they may fall under class code 9263- Fitness Centers. This depends on the business circumstances.
Alternative State Class Codes for Salons and Spas:
Sometimes a state will deviate from the industry class code recommended by NCCI. Instead of the NCCI code, they may require the utilization of a state specific class code for certain business segments.
| Class Code | State |
|---|---|
| 977 | Beauty Salons and Spas | Delaware / Pennsylvania |
| 8018 | Beauty Supply Store | NCCI |
| 8044 | Spa and Hot Tub Dealers | NCCI |

What Does Workers' Comp Cover?
Workers' comp coverage protects employees when injured. It makes good financial sense for both parties.
- Loss of income for employees unable to perform job duties
- Medical expenses for employees injured on the job
- Retraining expenses for employees unable to return
- Permanent injury or disability for lasting injuries
- Survivor benefits if employees are killed on the job
Coverage does not protect employers from everything. Sometimes employees and employers can be negligent.
- Injuries resulting from a violation of the law
- Incidents resulting from employees' use fo drugs or alcohol
- Injuries that did not occur in connection with the job
- Clear company policy violations
- Injuries that did not occur in connection with the job
