## What Is Class Code 2501?

Class code 2501 covers commercial bakery operations, including the production of bread, pastries, cakes, and other baked goods. Work involves mixing dough, operating ovens and baking equipment, decorating, and packaging. Hazards include burns from ovens and hot surfaces, slips on flour-dusted floors, repetitive motion injuries, and heat stress in baking environments.

## Who Does Class Code 2501 Apply To?

Bakers, pastry chefs, oven operators, packaging workers, and delivery drivers.

## Florida Examples — Class Code 2501

This class code applies to businesses like a large wholesale bakery in Orlando producing bread for grocery chains, or a smaller artisanal pastry shop in South Beach baking specialty cakes and pastries. It also covers local donut shops in Jacksonville and commercial facilities supplying baked goods to restaurants across Florida.

## How to Calculate Workers' Comp Premium for Class Code 2501

**Formula:** (Annual Payroll ÷ 100) × $1.75 × Experience Modification Rate (EMR)

| Annual Payroll | EMR 0.80 | EMR 1.00 | EMR 1.20 |
|---|---|---|---|
| $100,000 | $1400 | $1750 | $2100 |
| $250,000 | $3500 | $4375 | $5250 |
| $500,000 | $7000 | $8750 | $10500 |
| $1,000,000 | $14000 | $17500 | $21000 |

## Tips for Managing Class Code 2501 Workers' Comp Costs

- Burns from ovens and hot surfaces are the most common claim type — enforce heat-resistant glove use
- Slip-and-fall prevention on flour-dusted floors is important
- Separate delivery drivers under a driving code if they operate independently

## Safety Recommendations for Class Code 2501

- Implement strict lockout/tagout procedures and provide heat-resistant gloves for all employees operating ovens and handling hot equipment.
- Ensure ergonomic tools and regular rotation of tasks to minimize repetitive strain injuries for bakers and decorators.
- Maintain clean, dry, and non-slip floor surfaces throughout the bakery to prevent slips and falls, especially in mixing and washing areas.
- Provide proper lifting techniques training and mechanical aids for moving heavy sacks of flour or large batches of dough.
