What is a GL class code?
A GL (General Liability) class code is a 5-digit ISO code that insurance carriers use to classify your business by type and risk level. The code determines your base premium rate. ISO (Insurance Services Office) maintains the standard classification system used by most admitted carriers nationwide.
How is a GL class code different from a workers comp class code?
Workers comp class codes are NCCI codes that classify employees by job duty. GL class codes are ISO codes that classify the entire business operation. A roofing contractor, for example, uses NCCI code 5551 for workers comp and ISO code 98677 or 98678 for general liability — they are separate systems.
What is the basis of premium for general liability?
Most GL policies are rated on gross receipts (total revenue). Some classes use payroll, area (square footage), admissions, or units. Your carrier will audit your actual exposure at policy expiration and adjust the premium accordingly.
Do I need general liability insurance in Florida?
Florida does not universally require GL insurance, but many industries require it by contract, license, or permit. Licensed contractors in Florida must carry GL as a condition of their DBPR license. Landlords, lenders, and general contractors typically require subcontractors to carry GL before work begins.
