ACORD 130 Workers Compensation Application - Locations Section

How to Complete the Locations Section in the ACORD 130 Workers Compensation Application




The Locations section has room for only three locations. What if you have more? Use the Remarks section at the bottom of page 2. If that is still not enough use the ACORD 101 Additional Remarks Schedule.

LOC# - This means Location number in plain English. Use numbers 1, 2 and 3. Not Letters.


HIGHEST FLOOR - I have no idea why they ask this question. I suppose the risk of steps or jumping. Anyway, this is just the number of the highest floor at the location. Whether your customer is on that floor or not is not asked. I would add this to the Remarks Section at the bottom of page 2.


STREET, CITY, COUNTY, STATE, ZIP CODE - While ACORD has done an admirable job here of not using abbreviated words, They have made a mess of data entry. At a minimum just use a 2 character entry for STATE - NC instead of North Carolina.


I hope this helps you learn how to correctly complete the ACORD 130 Workers Compensation application.
