Class code 9741 covers employees at athletic sports teams and parks in event-facing roles, including ushers, ticket takers, security staff, and event personnel at sports venues. Florida's professional sports teams (NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL, MLS) and minor league franchises employ large numbers of part-time and seasonal event staff. Hazards include crowd management incidents, slip-and-fall injuries, and ergonomic conditions from standing for long periods. ## Who Does Class Code 9741 Apply To? Sports venue ushers, ticket takers, security staff, parking attendants, and event personnel at professional and amateur sports facilities. ## Florida Examples — Class Code 9741 Businesses in Florida employing event-facing personnel at athletic sports venues, such as the Miami Marlins, a major league baseball team, utilize NCCI class code 9741 for their comprehensive event staff. This includes hundreds of employees like ushers guiding fans to their seats, security personnel ensuring public safety, and concession workers serving food and beverages at loanDepot Park in Miami. Similarly, the Tampa Bay Rays, another prominent baseball franchise, classifies its extensive game day workforce under this code, covering parking attendants managing traffic flow around Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, ticket takers, and merchandise sellers. Furthermore, the Jacksonville Jaguars, a professional football team, applies this code to its diverse event personnel at EverBank Stadium, encompassing gate security, hospitality staff, and clean-up crews who ensure smooth operations for large-scale sporting events. This classification is crucial for any Florida-based organization, from small local sports complexes to large professional stadiums, that employs staff directly interacting with the public during athletic events, highlighting the varied roles involved in managing fan experience and venue logistics. ## How to Calculate Workers' Comp Premium for Class Code 9741 **Formula:** (Annual Payroll ÷ 100) × $0.62 × Experience Modification Rate (EMR) | Annual Payroll | EMR 0.80 | EMR 1.00 | EMR 1.20 | |---|---|---|---| | $100,000 | $496 | $620 | $744 | | $250,000 | $1240 | $1550 | $1860 | | $500,000 | $2480 | $3100 | $3720 | | $1,000,000 | $4960 | $6200 | $7440 | ## Tips for Managing Class Code 9741 Workers' Comp Costs - Crowd management training reduces the risk of injuries during large events - Slip-and-fall prevention in concourse areas and restrooms is critical - Ergonomic programs for staff who stand for extended periods reduce lower extremity injuries ## Safety Recommendations for Class Code 9741 - Implement comprehensive training programs for all event staff on crowd management techniques, conflict de-escalation, and emergency response procedures to minimize risks associated with large gatherings. - Ensure all walking surfaces, including stairs and ramps, are regularly inspected for hazards, kept clear of debris, and promptly cleaned of spills to prevent slips, trips, and falls among employees and patrons. - Provide ergonomic training and equipment for concession workers and those involved in setup/teardown to reduce the risk of overexertion injuries, strains, and repetitive motion disorders. - Establish clear protocols for monitoring weather conditions and provide adequate hydration stations, shaded rest areas, and appropriate uniforms for outdoor staff to prevent heat-related illnesses in Florida's climate. ## Get a Quote for Class Code 9741 Contact Bright Coast Insurance for a workers' comp quote for class code 9741 in FL: - **Phone:** (239) 323-0785 - **Email:** support@brightcoastins.com - **Online:** [Workers' Comp Calculator](https://brightcoastins.com/comp-calculator) - **Class Code Lookup:** [https://brightcoastins.com/workers-comp-codes/fl](https://brightcoastins.com/workers-comp-codes/fl) --- ## About Bright Coast Insurance Bright Coast Insurance is a Florida-licensed independent insurance agency (Florida License #L132181) specializing in commercial insurance for Florida contractors, builders, property owners, and HOA/condo associations.
