Top 5 reasons we think this is right
iThis is a best guess, not an official classification decision. The exact workers’ compensation class can depend on the work actually performed, employee duties and carrier rules. A licensed agent or insurer should confirm the final classification.
How Delaware workers’ compensation classification works
Delaware workers’ compensation classifications are administered through the Delaware Compensation Rating Bureau (DCRB). Because classification systems differ by jurisdiction, the safest approach is to identify the actual business activity first and then confirm the Delaware classification that applies to that work.
The Delaware calculator currently uses public DCRB residual-market class-rate information as an illustrative benchmark. A class code helps organize the type of work; it is not by itself a final insurance price or coverage decision.

These examples cover only the broad industries currently supported by 10 Second Quotes. They are not a complete Delaware classification manual, and a business with multiple operations can require more than one classification.
Describe the operation, not just the job title
“Technician,” “manager” or “contractor” is usually not enough information to identify a likely class. A description such as “commercial electrical wiring,” “restaurant with a kitchen and table service,” or “residential roof replacement” gives the classification helper much more useful context.
Delaware class-code FAQ
Who publishes workers’ compensation classifications in Delaware?
Delaware classification and rating information is administered through the Delaware Compensation Rating Bureau (DCRB). The final class used on a policy should be confirmed by the insurer, licensed agent or applicable rating authority.
Can a Delaware business have more than one workers’ comp class code?
Yes. Different operations or employee duties can sometimes be classified separately. A short online helper can suggest a starting point but cannot make a binding policy classification.
Why do some Delaware class codes look different from codes in other states?
Workers’ compensation systems are state-specific. Delaware uses its own rating-bureau structure and code presentation, so a code used for a similar business in another state should not simply be copied into Delaware.
