To participate in State Fund’s ADR program, the employer must be a signatory employer member of a carve-out agreement negotiated with the union that represents your employees.

Employers must also

  • Sign a workers’ compensation addendum, which formalizes use of an ADR system.
  • Remain in good standing with the union.
  • Maintain the appropriate business licenses for the industry.
  • Satisfy all state eligibility requirements under the Labor Code and the Insurance Code and related regulations.
  • Meet State Fund’s underwriting criteria for a workers’ compensation policy and timely pay the premium for the insurance policy.
