Insurance board approves workers compensation hike
The State Board of Insurance, in Austin, unanimously approved a 17.7 percent rise in workers compensation insurance rates. Critics warned the hike could push insurers out of the state, while supporters argued it corrects ongoing rate inadequacy. The increase, effective Jan 1, raises employer premiums by 385 million dollars. The AG sought a delay and more testimony, but the request failed 3 to 0.
