A Better Fit for the Fashion & Apparel Industry.

Apparel manufacturers can expect much higher workers’ compensation rates in 2012.

Expected increases are:

  • Clothing Mtg (class 2501) 49.84% 
  • Textiles (class 2413) 58.7%
  • Mattress or Box Spring Mfg (class 2570) 61.98%
  • Laundries (class 2585) 17.52% 
  • Dry Cleaning or Dyeing (class 2586) 30.29% 
  • Boot or Shoe Mfg (class 2660) 37.04% 
  • Clerical (class 8810) 40%
