Section 3702.2 Of Article 1. Insurance And Security From California Labor Code >> Division 4. >> Part 1. >> Chapter 4. >> Article 1.
3702.2
. (a) All self-insured employers shall file a self-insurer's
annual report in a form prescribed by the director. Public
self-insured employers shall provide detailed information as the
director determines necessary to evaluate the costs of
administration, workers' compensation benefit expenditures, and
solvency and performance of the public self-insured employer workers'
compensation programs, on a schedule established by the director.
The director may grant deferrals to public self-insured employers
that are not yet capable of accurately reporting the information
required, giving priority to bringing larger programs into compliance
with the more detailed reporting.
(b) To enable the director to determine the amount of the security
deposit required by subdivision (c) of Section 3701, the annual
report of a self-insured employer who has self-insured both state and
federal workers' compensation liability shall also set forth (1) the
amount of all compensation liability incurred, paid-to-date, and
estimated future liability under both this chapter and under the
federal Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act (33 U.S.C.
Sec. 901 et seq.), and (2) the identity and the amount of the
security deposit securing the employer's liability under state and
federal self-insured programs.
(c) The director shall annually prepare an aggregated summary of
all self-insured employer liability to pay compensation reported on
the self-insurers' employers annual reports, including a separate
summary for public and private employer self-insurers. The summaries
shall be in the same format as the individual self-insured employers
are required to report that liability on the employer self-insurer's
annual report forms prescribed by the director. The aggregated
summaries shall be made available to the public on the self-insurance
section of the department's Internet Web site. Nothing in this
subdivision shall authorize the director to release or make available
information that is aggregated by industry or business type, that
identifies individual self-insured filers, or that includes any
individually identifiable claimant information.
(d) The director may release a copy, or make available an
electronic version, of the data contained in any public sector
employer self-insurer's annual reports received from an individual
public entity self-insurer or from a joint powers authority employer
and its membership. However, the release of any annual report
information by the director shall not include any portion of any
listing of open indemnity claims that contains individually
identifiable claimant information, or any portion of excess insurance
coverage information that contains any individually identifiable
claimant information.
