BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.
To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.
To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

West Virginia employers will see an average 0.67% increase in workers compensation rates beginning July 1, the West Virginia Offices of the Insurance Commissioner said.
The rate increase is a result of a $5.07 increase to West Virginia's average weekly wage for fiscal year 2015, according to a recent notice from the insurance office.
The maximum weekly benefit for temporary total disability, permanent total disability and fatal injuries will increase to $759.88 from $754.81, while the minimum weekly benefit will remain at $193.33 for the sixth fiscal year in a row, the notice said.
According to the notice, the 0.67% increase marks the smallest percent increase to West Virginia workers comp rates since a 0.66% rate increase in fiscal year 1995.
