Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
(a) The Certificate of Consent to Self-Insure
					 of an individual private or public self-insurer, that has had its
					 self-insurance privilege terminated because of a legal change in business or
					 corporate structure may be reinstated without lapse, providing the employer can
					 re-qualify for self-insurance.
(b)
					 To request reinstatement of a Certificate of Consent to Self-Insure without a
					 lapse in self-insurance coverage, the applicant shall submit to the Chief a
					 statement that the applicant assumes and guarantees all workers' compensation
					 liabilities incurred during its prior period of self-insurance and will be
					 responsible for any additional self-insured liabilities incurred after
					 termination of its Certificate of Consent to Self-Insure. The Chief shall
					 accept the statement of the employer's assumption of all past liabilities if
					 signed by a corporate officer, attested to by the corporate secretary, and
					 sealed with the corporate seal. If the statement is approved by the Chief, the
					 applicant must submit within 90 days of the approval as part of the application
					 a Guaranty of Workers' Compensation Liabilities fully executed pursuant to
					 Section 15211.2 of these regulations. The
					 Guaranty of Workers' Compensation Liabilities must be submitted before the
					 Certificate to Self-Insure may be reinstated.
(c) A self-insured entity that has had its
					 Certificate of Consent to Self-Insure voluntarily revoked, may request to
					 become an active self-insurer again by making their request for re-activation
					 of their Certificate of Consent to Self-Insure in writing to the Chief. The
					 Chief may re-activate the Certificate of Consent to Self-Insure provided the
					 former self-insurer is current in filing all required reports, and is otherwise
					 in full compliance with their responsibilities related to self-insurance, or
					 upon the entity becoming current in all filing and compliance responsibilities.
					 No further application or documents shall be required provided all previously
					 filed documents are currently accurate at the time of the request to reactivate
					 their status as actively self-insuring their workers' compensation liabilities.
					 A certificate that has been reactivated shall not cover any workers'
					 compensation claims or liabilities that arise during the period between the
					 date of prior revocation and the date the certificate is reactivated. All
					 claims during the period between the two periods of self-insurance must have
					 been covered by an insurance policy.
