OhioBWC - Employer - Service:  (SI-40) - Report of Paid Compensation and Case Reserves

Report of Paid Compensation and Case Reserves (SI-40)

Once a year, self-insuring employers must complete the SI-40 online. We'll NO longer accept hard-copy forms. Instead, we'll send an e-mail notice to all self-insuring employers with a link to the SI every January. Self-insuring employers must submit the information no later than March 1.

The SI-40 captures all paid compensation the employer has paid in the reporting year by type. Based on the total amount of paid compensation reported, BWC calculates the self-insuring employer’s semiannual assessment. The assessment covers safety & hygiene, the administrative cost fund and the surplus fund. This assessment also covers the portion of the surplus fund used for rehabilitation reimbursement and handicap reimbursement subject to the self-insuring employer’s election.

Note: Lost-time, Medical-only, Occupational disease and Death fields ask for the number of claims in the reporting year.
