In the state of Ohio, maintaining the status of a self-insured employer requires the timely submission and renewal through the Ohio SI-7 form. This essential document, formally titled "Application for Renewal of Authorization to Operate as a Self-insured Policy," is outlined in Ohio Revised Code Section 4123 and plays a pivotal role in the continuation of a company's ability to manage its workers' compensation claims internally. A thorough application process demands that all sections be filled out meticulously, covering a range of criteria including company and subsidiary information, financial statements, corporate restructuring details, and compliance with state regulations. The form also gathers data on the employment numbers within Ohio, the type of business entity, and requires the disclosure of any changes to the corporate name, structure, or senior administrative personnel within the last year. Additionally, it addresses the necessity of excess workers' compensation insurance and the location of claim file storage for auditing purposes. The certification of the information as true to the best of the submitter's knowledge, supported by a notary seal, underscores the seriousness and legal implications of this document. Companies navigating through this process must ensure accuracy and completeness to avoid complications that could jeopardize their self-insured status.
