What determines the price in Texas
Workers compensation cost in Texas is not the same for every business. It is usually based on payroll, the type of work you do, your industry risk level, and your claims history. That is why an office business pays differently than a construction crew or a business with constant physical labor.
Contracts can also affect the price decision. Even though many private employers in Texas can choose not to participate, giving up coverage can create legal and business risks. If your customers require it, carrying a policy can help you keep opportunities open.
- Total business payroll
- Industry type and risk class
- Claims history
- Contract or client requirements
Reference ranges in Texas
A useful starting point in Texas is $1.45 per $100 of payroll. Nationally, a common reference range is $0.95-$0.98 per $100, so the Texas market can look different depending on your risk class and business activity.
For a small business, monthly premiums can fall between $45 and $121 per month. In office settings, cost can start from $0.10 per $100 of payroll, while construction can go to $25+ per $100. That gap explains why two companies with similar revenue can get very different prices.

How to lower your cost without losing protection
The best way to save is to review how each job duty is classified and confirm that payroll is calculated correctly. If part of the work is administrative and part is operational, separating those functions properly can help you avoid overpaying. It also helps to keep a clean claims history and train your team to reduce accidents.
Comparing options matters too. Because we work with several insurers, we can help you see real differences between companies and find an option that fits your business type. We speak Spanish, we guide you on ITIN options by carrier, and we show your estimate online so you can understand the price before moving forward.
