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 limits, for matters related to automobile liability, general liability (including damages associated with underground facility locating services), workers’ compensation, and employee group health. With regard to workers’ compensation losses occurring in the 12 month policy period ended in January 2020, we retained the risk of loss up to $1.0 million on a per occurrence basis. This retention amount is unchanged for the 12 month policy period ending in January 2021. 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. With regard to automobile liability and general liability losses the retention amount is unchanged for the first $5.0 million of insurance coverage (“primary liability insurance”) for the 12 month policy period ending in January 2021. Aggregate stop-loss coverage for primary insurance claims, including workers’ compensation claims, is $85.8 million for the 12 month policy period ending January 2021. With regard to automobile liability and general liability losses between $5.0 million and $10.0 million, aggregate stop-loss coverage is $11.5 million for the 12 month period ending January 2021. Losses greater than $10.0 million are covered by insurance. We are party to a stop-loss agreement for losses under our employee group health plan. For calendar year 2020, we retain the risk of loss, on an annual basis, up to the first $450,000 of claims per participant, as well as an annual aggregate amount for all participants of $475,000. Amounts for total accrued insurance claims and insurance recoveries/receivables are as follows (dollars in thousands):
| July 25, 2020 |  | January 25, 2020
Accrued insurance claims - current | $ | 43,702 |  |  | $ | 38,881 |
Accrued insurance claims - non-current | 67,303 |  |  | 56,026 |
Accrued insurance claims | $ | 111,005 |  |  | $ | 94,907 |
Insurance recoveries/receivables: |  |  |
Current (included in Other current assets) | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |
Non-current (included in Other assets) | 12,634 |  |  | 4,864 |
Insurance recoveries/receivables | $ | 12,634 |  |  | $ | 4,864 |
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 six months ended July 25, 2020, total insurance recoveries/receivables increased approximately $7.8 million primarily due to additional claims that exceeded our loss retention. Accrued insurance claims increased by a corresponding amount.
