We are pleased to offer Washington State nonprofits the opportunity to save money by participating in a Group Retro Plan recognized by the Washington Department of Labor and Industries.

Exercise Your Retro Options

Retro (short for Retrospective Rating Program) is an elective program offered by the Washington Department of Labor & Industries (L&I) as an incentive program through which employers earn a partial refund of L&I premiums by controlling workers’ compensation claim costs and preventing workplace injuries.

Since 2000, participants of the 501(c) Agencies’ Labor and Industries Trust have saved an average of 12% on their L&I premiums. To date, more than $20 million has been returned to those nonprofits to help with their missions.
