New policies - SI admission 12 New criteria to be applied to cos. requesting admission into self-insurance Minimum [3] years of audited financial statements Minimum credit rating of B3 / B- consecutively for [3] years (formal or implied) Company official certifying safety program is compliant OSIP to conduct internal verification of safety program (through Cal OSHA /OSHA) e.g. number of violations / citations – willful, unresolved, pending, etc.
13
New policies - SI admission (cont’d) 13 3 years of audited financials Verified and reconciled financials Ability to conduct credit rating analysis of cos. prior to admission into self- insurance covers several key metrics and is a strong indication of solvency Identifies historical credit risk / trends Minimum credit rating of B3 / B- (consecutively for 3 years) Minimum credit rating level is consistent with existing policies Cos. entering self-insurance will have a stable and verified track record Potentially eliminates cos. that may ”flip-flop” in the future between ASP eligibility (e.g. movements between B3 / Caa1) Safety program compliance Cos. will be self-certifying OSIP to verify compliance The new policy simplifies regulations (e.g. eliminates 3-year wait period, etc.) and brings consistency across all policies and procedures. Reasons behind the new criteria
14
Immediate participation: Minimum - level 10 (Baa3 / BBB-) Subject to credit committee approval: Level 11 (Ba1 / BB+) to level 14 (B1 / B+) Not admitted on a midyear basis: Level 15 (B2 / B) and level 16 (B3 / B-) 14 Exceptions will be based on Board discretion (e.g. applicants with large exposures, other risks, etc. New policies – ASP participation The purpose of the delegated authority policy is to support OSIP in its streamlined application process and to approve eligible new self-insurers for immediate (mid-cycle) ASP participation
