Accrued Insurance Claims [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Accrued Insurance Claims | Accrued Insurance Claims For claims within our insurance program, we retain the risk of loss, up to certain annual stop-loss limits, for matters related to automobile liability, general liability (including damages associated with underground facility locating services), workers’ compensation, and employee group health. Losses for claims beyond our retained risk of loss are covered by insurance up to our coverage limits. For workers’ compensation losses during fiscal 2026 and 2025, we retained the risk of loss up to $1.0 million on a per occurrence basis. This retention amount is applicable to all of the states in which we operate, except with respect to workers’ compensation insurance in two states in which we participate in state-sponsored insurance funds. For automobile liability and general liability losses during fiscal 2026, we retained the risk of loss up to $2.0 million on a per-occurrence basis for the first $5.0 million of insurance coverage. We also retained the risk of loss for the next $5.0 million on a per-occurrence basis for losses between $5.0 million and $10.0 million, if any. For automobile liability losses during fiscal 2025, we retained the risk of loss up to $2.0 million on a per-occurrence basis for the first $5.0 million of insurance coverage and we retained the risk of loss up to $1.0 million for general liability losses during fiscal 2025. We also retained the risk of loss for the next $5.0 million on a per-occurrence basis for losses between $5.0 million and $10.0 million, if any. We are party to a stop-loss agreement for losses under our employee group health plan. For calendar year 2025, we retain the risk of loss on an annual basis, up to the first $750,000 of claims per participant. Amounts for total accrued insurance claims and insurance recoveries/receivables are as follows (dollars in thousands):
Insurance recoveries/receivables represent the amount of accrued insurance claims that are covered by insurance as the amounts exceed the Company’s loss retention. During the three months ended April 26, 2025, total insurance recoveries/receivables increased as a result of additional claims that exceeded our loss retention. Accrued insurance claims increased by a corresponding amount.
