  • An Experience Mod (also called E-Mod) is a rating factor based on expected losses vs actual losses. It helps determine the cost of insurance by modifying the premium provided by the insurance carrier.  At Gerety Insurance we educate our clients on E-Mods because a low experience mod can lower your yearly premium and show you as a businessowner where you are you are having the most frequent and serve claims.

What if I 1099 all my employees?
