  • Agreement Between Employer and the Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation Regarding Amount of Self-Insured Buyout (SI-16).
When an employer becomes self-insured, it is liable for its proportionate share of any deficit in the state insurance fund as determined by BWC’s actuarial unit. Because BWC ended fiscal year 1999 with no deficit, employers that file an appropriate application from July 1, 2000 through June 30, 2001 will incur no liability nor will they receive any refund of prior premiums paid. BWC re-evaluates the need for a buyout on an annual basis. The employer will pay the determined amount within 30 days of the granting of self-insurance.
Note: There is currently no buyout amount, however the form is still required.
