  • Need suggestions: Program on how to charge facilities/mgmt for lost time accidents

    Does anyone have a program or have idea's in how to set up a safety charge back program as it relates to Workers Compensation.

    For example, we have multi facilities and we would like to design a program where a facility would be charged a certain amount for any lost time claim filed from their facility.  We are wanting to crack down on claims, but also not discourage cover ups etc.  Should it be a set amount, a percentage of the total claim cost, how would it be set up, should it come out of the building funds or bonus programs?

     I know there are lots of places out there doing this and just wanted some input and direction from anyone out there!

     

    Thanks

    We have multiple facilities also but our WC carrier has account information for each site so that they bill us according to account number.  This way, each site is responsible for their own charges. This includes any bills paid by W/C, not just for lost time injuries.
