Beginning January 1, 2026, we have the option to annually elect to limit our responsibility for each participant’s claim costs to $500,000, $750,000, or $1,000,000 per year, which we elect based on the cost of the limit and our estimate of the benefit of that level of limit.

Current report

On July 4, 2025, H.R.1, which is known as the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” was signed into federal law. This law includes significant changes to federal tax law and other regulatory provisions that may impact us. ASC 740, “Income Taxes”, requires the effect of changes in tax rates and laws on deferred tax balances to be recognized in the period in which the legislation is enacted. We have evaluated the provisions of H.R.1 and the potential effects on our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. Although there is no impact to our effective tax rate, we are accelerating tax deductions for unamortized software development costs.

We invoice the gross billings concurrently with each periodic payroll of our WSEEs. Revenues, which exclude the payroll cost component of gross billings, and therefore, consist solely of the markup, are recognized ratably over the payroll period as WSEEs perform their service at the client worksite. This markup includes pricing components associated with our estimates of payroll taxes, benefits and workers’ compensation costs, plus a separate component related to our HR services. Revenues that have been recognized but not invoiced represent unbilled accounts receivable included in accounts receivable, net on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Previous wording

The health insurance contract with United provides the majority of our health insurance coverage. As a result of certain contractual terms, we have accounted for this plan since its inception using a partially self-funded insurance accounting model. Accordingly, we record the costs of the United plan, including an estimate of the incurred claims, taxes and administrative fees (collectively the “Plan Costs”), as benefits expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The estimated incurred but not reported claims are based upon: (1) the level of claims processed during the quarter; (2) estimated completion rates based upon recent claim development patterns under the plan; and (3) the number of participants in the plan, including both active and COBRA enrollees. Each reporting period, changes in the estimated ultimate costs resulting from claim trends, plan design and migration, participant demographics and other factors are incorporated into benefits costs.

The health insurance contract with United provides the majority of our health insurance coverage. As a result of certain contractual terms, we have accounted for this program since its inception using a partially self-funded insurance accounting model. Accordingly, we record the costs of the United program, including an estimate of the incurred claims, taxes and administrative fees (collectively the “Program Costs”), as benefits expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The estimated incurred but not reported claims are based upon: (1) the level of claims processed during the quarter; (2) estimated completion rates based upon recent claim development patterns under the program; and (3) the number of participants in the program, including both active and COBRA enrollees. Each reporting period, changes in the estimated ultimate costs resulting from claim trends, plan design and migration, participant demographics and other factors are incorporated into benefits costs.

Previous wording

Our financial responsibility with United is limited to the first $1 million of paid claims per claimant per year. Additionally, since the plan’s inception, under the terms of the contract, United establishes cash funding rates 90 days in advance of the beginning of a reporting quarter. If the Plan Costs for a reporting quarter are greater than the premiums paid and owed to United, a deficit in the plan would be incurred and we would accrue a liability for the excess costs on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. On the other hand, if the Plan Costs for the reporting quarter are less than the premiums paid and owed to United, a surplus in the plan would be incurred and we would record an asset for the excess premiums in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The terms of the arrangement with United require us to maintain an accumulated cash surplus in the plan of $9 million, which is reported as long-term prepaid insurance. As of December 31, 2024, Plan Costs were more than the net premiums paid and owed to United by $5 million. As this amount is less than the agreed-upon $9 million surplus maintenance level, the $14 million difference is included in accrued health insurance costs, a current liability, in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, the premiums owed to United at December 31, 2024, were less than $1 million, which is also included in accrued health insurance costs, a current liability, on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We utilize a third-party actuary to estimate our loss development rate, which is primarily based upon the nature of WSEEs’ job responsibilities, the location of WSEEs, the historical frequency and severity of workers’ compensation claims, and an estimate of future cost trends. Each reporting period, changes in the actuarial assumptions resulting from changes in actual claims experience and other trends are incorporated into our workers’ compensation claims cost estimates. During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, we reduced accrued workers’ compensation costs by $32 million and $33 million, respectively, for changes in estimated losses related to prior reporting periods. Workers’ compensation cost estimates are discounted to present value at a rate based upon the U.S. Treasury rates that correspond with the weighted average estimated claim payout period (the average discount rate was 4.3% in both 2024 and 2023) and are accreted over the estimated claim payment period and included as a component of direct costs in our Consolidated Statements of Income.

Our claim trends could be greater than or less than our prior estimates, in which case we would revise our claims estimates and record an adjustment to workers’ compensation costs in the period such determination is made. If we were to experience any significant changes in actuarial assumptions, our loss development rates could increase (or decrease), which would result in an increase (or decrease) in workers’ compensation costs and a resulting decrease (or increase) in net income reported in our Consolidated Statements of Income.

At the beginning of each policy period, the workers’ compensation insurance carrier establishes monthly funding requirements comprised of premium costs and funds to be set aside for payment of future claims (“claim funds”). The level of claim funds is primarily based upon anticipated WSEE payroll levels and expected workers’ compensation loss rates, as determined by the insurance carrier. Monies funded into the program for incurred claims expected to be paid within one year are recorded as restricted cash, a short-term asset, while the remainder of claim funds are included in deposits, a long-term asset in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. In 2024, we received $39 million for the return of excess claim funds related to the workers’ compensation program, which decreased deposits – workers’ compensation. As of December 31, 2024, we had restricted cash of $69 million and deposits – workers’ compensation of $178 million. We have estimated and accrued $204 million in incurred workers’ compensation claim costs as of December 31, 2024. Our estimate of incurred claim costs expected to be paid within one year is recorded as accrued workers’ compensation costs and is included in short-term liabilities, while our estimate of incurred claim costs expected to be paid beyond one year is included in long-term liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.
