ACC levy discounts

ACC considers a business's claims history when calculating their levy, which is called the Experience Rating programme. This programme aims to give discounts to employers with fewer injuries or good rehabilitation rates. Employers with more injuries or poor rehabilitation rates may be charged higher levies.

There are two categories that fall under the Experience Rating programme:

• No claims discount – the Work levy is less than $10,000 in any one of the three years.
• Experience Rating – the Work levy is more than $10,000 for three years in a row.

The programme makes levies fairer, provides incentives to encourage prevention of injury at work and helping injured employees return to work safely and quickly.
