This past year, the Illinois Workers’ Compensation Commission (IWCC) requested higher employer surcharges due to the commission’s projected budget shortfalls. In response, the Illinois General Assembly voted to adjust the employer assessments and indicated that it would reopen the debate next year regarding workers’ compensation funding, reforms, and benefits.
NFIB, working with other business groups, will advocate for workers’ compensation reforms to prevent higher employer assessments.
