This includes any company that erects, demolishes, alters or repairs structures, and includes carpenters, plumbers, electricians, roofers, painters, landscapers, welders, machinery installers, concrete construction workers, earthmovers or drillers.

- Code 7380 may be used only on policies where more than 50 percent of the total premium is produced by one or more of the contracting classifications listed.
- How do I apply for the credit?
- If your workers compensation policy has one of these construction classification codes, your insurer will automatically send you the form. If you have not received a form by your policy renewal date, contact your insurer. You must submit your form within 180 days from the date your policy renews or begins. The application form must be submitted to the National Council of Compensation Insurance (NCCI) for calculation. The address for the NCCI is:
NCCI Missouri Contractors' Credit Premium Adjustment Program
901 Peninsula Corporate Circle
Boca Raton, Florida 33487 - How much of a credit can I get?
- The amount of your credit depends on how your average hourly wage compares to the state average hourly wage.
There is a mathematical formula that is used to calculate the exact credit applicable to each policy. The calculation is generated by the NCCI based upon the payroll information supplied by the insured. If, after receiving notification of the credit to be applied, there are questions as to how the credit was calculated, the NCCI can be reached at 800-622-4123. - Do I have to fill out the form?
- You should fill out the form to see if you qualify for the credit. If your average hourly wage is under $21, you do not have to submit the form. You will still get a form next year.
- What time period is used to calculate the CCPAP?
- You will report the total payroll (excluding overtime pay), and the corresponding total number of hours worked for any calendar quarter (first, second, third, or fourth) of the year preceding the policy effective date as reported to taxing authorities.
