Pooled Workers' Compensation Program Minimize

VCJPA provides workers' compensation coverage for its members in excess of the members' retained limit up to $500,000 per occurrence. Each member retains a portion of each loss ranging from $2,500 to $50,000. VCJPA is also a member of the Local Agency Workers' Compensation Excess Joint Powers Authority (LAWCX), a risk sharing joint powers authority. When losses exceed the $500,000 per occurrence limit, LAWCX will provide coverage up to Statutory limit.

In order to protect the members from periods of frequent and severe losses, the Aggregate and Mid-Layer Pools have  been built into the Pooled Workers' Compensation Program. The graph below outlines the various levels of coverage provided through this program.
