About Workers' Compensation Advisory Committee

Workers' Compensation Advisory Committee (WCAC)

The Workers' Compensation Advisory Committee (WCAC) was created by the Washington State Legislature in 1971 (RCW 51.04.110 (www.leg.wa.gov)). The WCAC members advise and serve as a sounding board for the Director of L&I and the Assistant Director for Insurance Services on matters pertaining to the state's workers' compensation system.

Members include representatives from business, organized labor, self-insured employers and the Board of Industrial Insurance Appeals (BIIA).

The WCAC meets at least every quarter. Meeting topics include:

• Budget issues.
• Policy changes.
• New programs.
• Insurance rates.
