BWC Extends Its Policy Activity Rebate Program

Private employers can enroll now through Jan. 31, 2020

The Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation (BWC) has extended the Policy Activity Rebate (PAR) pilot program for a second year. PAR is an employer-controlled, activity-based incentive program that raises employers' awareness and increases understanding of some of the most important aspects of workers' compensation, including safety, claims and policy management.

PAR is a customizable plan that allows employers to choose from 33 activities to earn a premium rebate. Employers must complete 11 credits during the enrolled policy year to earn a 50 percent premium rebate, up to $2,000. Private employers can enroll now through Jan. 31, 2020. Public employer enrollment begins Dec. 1, 2019.
