What is class code 9061?

NCCI class code 9061 (Club — Country, Golf, Fishing or Yacht — All Employees) is used by workers' compensation insurance carriers to classify the work performed by your employees. Class codes determine the rate per $100 of payroll that you pay for coverage. Codes with higher injury risk (like roofing or tree care) have higher rates; clerical and office work has the lowest rates.

The retail industry typically falls in hazard group B (Low risk). Many businesses in this category are misclassified by previous carriers — if your current policy lists a different code, it's worth a free review to make sure you're not overpaying.

How premium is calculated for code 9061

(Annual Payroll ÷ 100) × Rate × Experience Mod = Premium

Your premium for class code 9061 starts with your gross annual payroll for employees doing this type of work. Divide by 100, multiply by the state-approved rate (typically between $$1.80 and $$5.00 for this code), then multiply by your experience modification factor (mod). New businesses start with a 1.0 mod; after a few years your mod reflects your actual claims history.
