Group Retro Program
When it comes to individual refunds back to members, AGC's Group Retro workers’-comp program is a top industry performer, year-in and year-out.
(May 2023) Congratulations, AGC Retro members, on $80 million in premium refunds for the three years in cycle — plus a bit more from a prior year! These results reflect your commitment to safety and light-duty accommodation.
While top performers will earn refunds of 50% or more, the same efforts also reduce L&I insurance costs for both employer and employee while preventing and reducing injuries.
AGC Group-Retro program opportunities
AGC Group Retro is a retrospective premium-rating program. These are safety incentive-based programs, approved by the State Department of Labor and Industries (L&I), that provide employers with an opportunity to receive a substantial refund of their industrial-insurance premiums.
With features that include hands-on claims-management assistance, an in-house vocational counselor, one-of-a-kind return-to-work services, stringent underwriting criteria requiring Safety Team® membership and more, AGC Group Retro is the state’s best-value workers-comp program, with
• average individual top-performer refunds of 51% over the last 20 years
• the lowest administrative costs among workers-comp retrospective rating programs at approximately 5% of the refund, and
