Sinegal said while only one-third of his employees are in California, 70 percent of Costco's workers compensation costs are in the state.

That says it all.

Said another way (for the mathematically inclined),

33% of employees represent 70% of the workers comp costs.
66% of employees represent 30% of the workers comp costs.

(.70$ / .33 employee) / (.30$ / .67 employee)

==> A California employee's workers comp overhead is over 4.7 times as much as that of an average employee in the rest of the U.S.
