This notification is a reminder of the Industry Code requirement that will take effect October 1, 2005, for Proof of Coverage EDI reporting to the Florida Division of Workers' Compensation. For all workers' compensation policies, binders, renewals that require an "Employer Transaction (PC2)", and Endorsements that add Florida Employers and/or locations to a policy (Triplicate Codes 00-31-72, 00-31-86, 00-31-54, & 00-31-87) with a Jurisdiction Designee/Division Received Date on or after October 1, 2005, the Industry Code is required and must be reported using the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code (2002 version), in place of the SIC code.
On or after 10-1-05, if a policy is reported to the Division without a valid NAICS 2002 code, the policy will be rejected and the Insured will be reflected as having no coverage in the Division's database until the policy is resubmitted with a valid 2002 NAICS code.
