Workers’ CompNew Mexico
Pick your industry, monthly payroll and claims history to see an illustrative monthly workers’ compensation cost guide for a business in New Mexico. This page uses a modeled state-adjusted benchmark because 10 Second Quotes does not currently use a state-specific class-rate table for New Mexico.
In the Oregon Department of Consumer and Business Services 2024 interstate study, New Mexico had a workers’ compensation premium index of $1.05 per $100 of payroll, equal to 96% of the study median. Oregon DCBS placed New Mexico at 96% of the study median, which falls in the study’s 90%–110% range. In that standardized comparison, New Mexico was near the study median; small differences in the index can still move a state several ranking positions.
The premium index is a standardized interstate comparison built from a consistent mix of major risk classifications. It does not mean every New Mexico employer pays $1.05 per $100 of payroll, and it is not an official New Mexico class rate or insurance quote.
For New Mexico, 10 Second Quotes starts with a national industry benchmark derived from public workers’ compensation datasets and scales it to New Mexico’s statewide index of $1.05. That preserves differences among industries while making the estimate sensitive to the state’s overall cost environment.
The calculator then applies the same simplified claims-history adjustment used elsewhere on 10 Second Quotes. Exact premiums can differ substantially because of the employer’s actual classification, payroll, experience modification, insurer, underwriting, location, minimum premiums, fees and assessments.
No. This is an educational cost guide. It is designed to give a fast directional estimate until a state-specific public dataset suitable for this calculator is integrated. A carrier, agent, state fund or rating organization may classify and price the same business differently.

Claims history adjustment. 10 Second Quotes uses a simplified claims-history assumption solely to illustrate how prior claims may affect cost. It is not an official experience modification or insurer rating factor, and it does not calculate or predict the rating factor an insurer may apply.
