How will the department determine the wages earned and hours worked for self-employed persons electing coverage?
(1) The department will use the self-employed person's reported income and divide it by the state's minimum wage to presume the number of hours worked.
Example: For this example, the state's minimum wage is $12.00 per hour. The self-employed person electing coverage reports $10,000 of income in a quarter. The department will divide $10,000 by $12.00 and presume the self-employed person worked 833 hours in that quarter.
(2) The self-employed person may overcome the presumption of hours by providing sufficient documentation to the department including, but not limited to, personal logs or contracts.
(3) The department may require copies of tax returns, bank records, or any other documentation deemed necessary by the department to verify or determine the self-employed person's hours and wages.

How will the department assess the size of new employers?
An employer that has not been in business in Washington long enough to report four calendar quarters by September 30th will have its size calculated after the second quarter of reporting is due by averaging the number of employees reported over the quarters for which reporting exists. Premium assessment based on this determination will begin on this reporting date. This size determination remains in effect until the following September 30th pursuant to RCW 50A.04.115 (8)(c).

What are the requirements to be eligible for a conditional premium waiver?
(1) An employer and employee may be eligible for a conditional waiver of premium payments by satisfying the requirements of RCW 50A.04.120.
(2) A conditional premium waiver is not required for work that is not subject to premiums under WAC 192-510-070 or fails to meet the definition of employment in RCW 50A.04.010 (7)(a).
(3) Any conditional premium waiver request must be submitted to the department online or in another format approved by the department.
(4) As a condition to granting the conditional premium waiver, the employer must file quarterly reports to verify that employees still qualify for the conditional premium waiver.
(5) Once an employee works eight hundred twenty hours in a qualifying period localized in Washington for an employer, the conditional premium waiver expires.
(6) The department may require the employer to submit additional documentation as necessary.
(7) If the employee exceeds eight hundred twenty hours or more in a qualifying period, the conditional waiver expires and the employer and employee will be responsible for their shares of all premiums that would have been paid during the qualifying period in which the employee exceeded eight hundred twenty hours had the waiver not been granted. Upon payment of the missed premiums, the employee will be credited for the hours worked and will be eligible for benefits under this chapter as if the premiums were originally paid.
Example: A storm hits Washington. An employer in Oregon hires a new employee who lives in Oregon to help with repair work. The employee only works in Washington for the employer for one week and is then laid off. The employer could request a conditional premium waiver for this employee.
