Again, the insurance industry gets a significant annual increase in premium rate but permanently injured workers have not had an adjustment in their permanent disability rate in over 10 years. Employers have saved an average of approximately $15,000 per year since SB899. Injured workers, on the other hand, have seen the value of their permanent disability rates cut by approximately 26% due to inflation since 2014.
