Florida’s insurance commissioner has approved a 6.9% average decrease in workers’ compensation rates for the v
oluntary market for 2026, marking the ninth straight year of rate cuts in the state.
The average rate reduction will be for new and renewal workers’ comp policies, starting Jan. 1.
Like most states, Florida has seen a steady drop in experience,
or worker injury rates, in the last decade in most job classifications. Florida also has seen a decline in workers’ compensation medical costs.
“This rate decrease directly translates to reduced operating costs for businesses, encouraging investment and
growth throughout Florida’s economy,” Commissioner Michael Yaworsky said in a statement.
The approval follows a September filing by the National Council on
Compensation Insurance, which recommends rates or loss-cost changes for 38 states. The NCCI based its recommendation on 2022 and 2023 data.
