What is Spinning or Weaving NOC Workers Compensation (class code: 2222)?
Workers compensation insurance for Spinning or Weaving NOC (Not Otherwise Classified), class code 2222, is designed for businesses involved in textile manufacturing processes that don't fall under more specific classifications. This includes facilities where raw fibers are spun into yarn or thread, and where weaving operations produce cloth or fabric from those threads. The "NOC" designation means the operation doesn't fit into a more narrowly defined textile class code.
This type of workers comp coverage helps protect textile employers from the costs associated with employee injuries or illnesses that happen on the job. It also helps employees get medical care and wage replacement if they are hurt while working.
Who Needs It

- Textile mills
- Yarn or thread production facilities
- Weaving operations using looms or other equipment
If your business processes fibers into yarn or weaves yarn into cloth and isn’t classified under other textile-specific codes, you likely fall under this NOC category.
