On or about January 31st, of each calendar year, a Notice of Contribution Rate is mailed to the employer showing his rate for the current year. This form also reflects in detail a schedule of the computation of the rate.

In addition to the contribution rate, a contingency charge of six one-hundredths of one percent (0.06%) is assessed upon wages as defined in Section 41-27-380. (See Section 41-27-410.)

The rate table shown above is effective January 1, 2000.
