What work does code 9014 cover?
It includes cleaning crews that ready homes for new occupants, and crews that wash windows and sweep or mop to ready a site for use. It does not include construction debris removal. Painting, maintenance or repair at a site where the contractor does not also clean is classed separately. A construction company's own staff who clean before, during or after construction stay in its construction class.
Described in our own words from Minnesota's rating bureau manual. Minnesota has its own rating bureau, so NCCI's wording may differ. Wording and scope differ by state; the manual filed in your state decides.
Often confused with
- 5610 Construction debris removal: 5610 in Florida's list, 9403 in Minnesota.
Which pay counts toward code 9014 premium?
Premium is figured on payroll for the work in this class, and the rate is premium per $100 of it. What counts is set state by state. Minnesota's manual and Oregon's state fund, SAIF, both count employees' pre-tax deductions, such as 401(k) and Section 125 contributions, and both leave out the overtime premium, the extra half of time and a half (Minnesota requires records that show overtime pay by employee and by class). Check your state's rules.
Where does code 9014 apply?
NCCI is the rating bureau
These states have named NCCI their rating organization, so the code comes from NCCI's manual, with each state's exceptions.
Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia
Texas lists 9014 in its advisory loss costs effective July 1, 2026.
Own rating bureau: check its manual
An independent bureau sets the classes. Many numbers match NCCI's, but wording and scope can differ: Indiana's bureau files NCCI's manual with Indiana-specific codes, while Minnesota's publishes its own.

State fund only
NCCI lists these as monopolistic states: workers' comp comes from the state fund, so ask the fund how it classes your work. Ohio's fund rates on NCCI classification codes; North Dakota, Washington and Wyoming use their own. Washington has its own risk classes and publishes hourly rates, so premium there follows hours worked, not payroll.

COMMON QUESTIONS
- Is cleaning after construction 9014?
- Crews that wash windows and sweep and mop to ready a site are 9014 in Minnesota. Removing construction debris is not.
- Is code 9014 used in Texas?
- Yes. Texas lists 9014 in its advisory loss costs effective July 1, 2026. Those are loss costs, not rates: a carrier's rate adds its own expenses.
- How is the premium for code 9014 worked out?
- Your payroll in this class, divided by 100, times your carrier's rate for the class. Then your experience mod, any schedule credit or debit, and an expense constant if your policy has one. Premium discounts, state assessments and minimum premiums are separate.
