For the index of Ohio workers compensation class codes in PDF format, you can download the State Fund Manual from the Ohio BWC (Classifications start on page 166). In this state, workers compensation falls under the jurisdiction of the Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation (BWC). The Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation is a monopolistic state fund with a state-controlled workers compensation plan that prohibits private insurers from competitively writing mandatory coverage.


As you can see on the State Fund Manual, workers compensation classifications are governed by NCCI.

The National Council on Compensation Insurance, or “NCCI”, is the governing authority for workers compensation for most U.S. states, including Ohio. You can view a basic index listing of all NCCI Codes for the state of Ohio by clicking the image to the right.
