The State Compensation Insurance Fund continues to operate under the direction of an 11-member Board of Directors. Nine of these members are appointed by the Governor, while the Speaker of the Assembly and the Senate Committee on Rules each appoint one member. A Director of Industrial Relations also serves, but as a nonvoting member.

The board members should have experience in areas like workers’ compensation, legal, and financial management. They are compensated for meetings, with some receiving a fixed annual salary that adjusts for inflation. Board members must avoid conflicts of interest and attend mandatory training on relevant topics.

Various board committees, including audit and investment committees, must be established. Members can be replaced if they fail to attend meetings. Initial terms for some members differ based on the appointed session.

This section explains that the goal for the fund is to operate competitively with private insurers in the market after taking some time to get established. Ultimately, the fund should cover its own costs, meaning it's not intended to make a profit or suffer a loss. To achieve this, the fund will analyze its losses and expenses, and it might distribute dividends or credits as stated in this article.

Every year around January 1st, the financial results of the fund are reviewed to see if there’s an excess of assets after covering liabilities, reserves, and potential disaster risks. If there’s extra money, the fund can give employer-insured members a cash dividend or a credit towards their next premium.

The fund can't advertise this out-of-state insurance option proactively.

This law prevents former members of the Board of Directors and certain high-ranking officers of the State Compensation Insurance Fund from lobbying the fund for two years after they leave their positions. Additionally, if these former members or officers wish to offer consulting services to the fund, it must be approved by the current board of directors.

Before the president can start their duties, they must provide a $50,000 bond approved by the directors and take an official oath. The board's approval is shown by signing the bond which is then filed with the Secretary of State.

The board of directors has the ability to give the president of the fund the authority to perform certain tasks, as long as they follow specific rules and conditions set by the board.

SCIF can also make limited discretionary investments but these cannot exceed a small portion of its assets or surplus funds.
