They have you rated at code 5040 which is Iron or Steel Erection. The
rate for this code is roughly 26%
You should be rated at code 7600 which is Telecommunications and the
rate is roughly 8%.
Call Unitel and they'll get you straightened out.

WC for climbers is probably 20-25% of the payroll rate.
And you pay that whether or not you are climbing.

*Subject:* [AFMUG] Tower Climber Insurance Sources?
Hey all,
My company is getting charged an assload a year for one tower climber
(me). Supposedly, I have been reclassified as a steel and tower
erector and such our Workmans Comp and Insurance has doubled. Whom do
you guys use and what are the ball park figures you are seeing? We
would like to get out of this if the prices are substantially lower.
Thanks
Sam
