The Funding Commission is required to establish the annual assessment rates necessary to fund the various programs. In addition to funding the payment of Special Fund liabilities, the Kentucky Coal Workers’ Pneumoconiosis Fund, and the Uninsured Employers Fund, these assessments finance the administrative operations of the Funding Commission and all programs in the Kentucky Labor Cabinet except Employment Standards, Apprenticeship and Training, and Labor-Management Relations and Mediation. The Funding Commission is governed by a Board of Directors consisting of seven members. Board members include the Secretaries of Labor, Economic Development, and Finance & Administration Cabinets. In addition, the Governor appoints four members who represent labor, insurance companies writing workers’ compensation insurance, employers, and self-insured employers and groups. * * * E-FILE/E-PAY * * * KRS 342.122(2)(b) Beginning on January 1, 2020, all assessments shall be electronically remitted to the funding commission quarterly not later than the thirtieth day of the month following the end of the quarter in which the premium is received.
