Determine Business Classification

Enter your business name and state and we’ll suggest the closest industry currently supported by our workers’ comp calculator. Add a short description when the business name alone doesn’t explain the work.

What is a workers’ comp business classification?

Workers’ compensation pricing starts with the type of work employees actually perform. Classification systems group businesses and job activities with similar work and risk characteristics. A company name by itself is not always enough, which is why this helper also lets you describe the work in plain English.

This tool is designed to help you choose the closest broad industry in the 10 Second Quotes cost calculator. It does not determine the official class code for an insurance policy.

Why can two similar businesses have different class codes?

The exact classification can change with the work performed, whether employees work in the field or in an office, specialized operations, and state-specific classification rules. Treat the result here as a starting point for the calculator, not a binding insurance classification.
