How to reduce your premium rates

There are two main ways you can reduce your premium rates.

Prevent injuries

Preventing work injuries is the best way to reduce your premium rate. Injury prevention leads to a better experience rating for your firm and a lower base rate for your industry. Visit WorkSafe Saskatchewan’s website to learn more about injury prevention, including safety regulations governing your business activities, safety obligations for your workers and your workplace and how to complete general health and safety training.

Return injured workers to work

Studies show that injured workers recover more quickly and more completely the sooner they are able to return to work when it is medically safe to do so. Modifying job duties where possible allows an injured worker to return to work safely while they recover. This also reduces the overall claim costs of that injury.
