If you
do not have the Employer Number
that was provided by the
Commission in the formal mailing, please send an email
to
Opt_In_Info@wcc.state.md.us.
Please use the preceding email
link or type “Employer Number”
in the subject line; we will
provide the employer number by
email response. You will need
this number to access the online
form and complete the process of
electing to include all of your
covered employees under the
provisions of the new law.
Please also reference this
number on all correspondence
with the Commission regarding
your opt-in election.
After
entering the Employer Number in
the indicated field, the online
form will be generated.
The form requires the name of
the entity filing the election
and the official notice address
for that entity, along with the
Federal Employer Identification
Number or FEIN.
Also
include the contact information
for the person who is to receive
the Notice of Acknowledgement
from the Workers’ Compensation
Commission.
Be sure
to insert the date of the
resolution or ordinance and use
the “Add Attachment Button” to
attach the electronic (file) version of
the resolution or ordinance to
the online submission.
By
submitting the form, you are
certifying under penalty of
perjury that you are an
authorized representative of the
county or municipality and that
the document attached to the
online form is a true and
correct copy of the ordinance or
resolution adopted by the named
county or municipality.
Be sure
to enter your email address on
the form. After
submission, the contact person
will receive an email
confirmation to this address
acknowledging receipt of the
form. THIS IS NOT THE
NOTICE OF ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF THE
ELECTION.
A
NOTICE OF ACKNOWLEDGEMENT will
be mailed to the contact person
at the official notice address
for that entity entered on the
form when the Commission has
reviewed the form and verified
the information for accuracy and
completeness. The date of the
Notice of Acknowledgement will
be the effective date of the
election to “opt-in” to the
provisions of the new law for
ALL county and municipal covered
employees. |
