Kansas workers' comp rates kept level after reform passage
Insurance Commissioner Ron Todd denied a 9.5% overall premium rise for Kansas workers' compensation, sparking approval from Gov. Joan Finney and business groups. The move follows a new comp reform bill the Legislature approved and Gov. Finney signed, with rates to be set by June 1 across 600 business classifications. The NCCI had urged higher rates, but revisions lowered the request to 9.5%.
