Frequently Asked Workers’ Compensation Questions
What types of coverage can be combined with workers’ compensation to create a comprehensive policy?
For many companies, crafting a comprehensive protection plan starts with workers’ compensation insurance, but pairing it with additional coverages can address your business’s full range of risks. Consider these options from Bly Insurance Group to enhance your policy:
Is workers’ compensation insurance required by law?
In most states, businesses are legally required to carry workers’ compensation insurance once they have employees. This ensures compliance with regulations and protects both workers and employers.
Do self-employed individuals need workers’ compensation insurance?
Some states require self-employed individuals to carry workers’ compensation insurance under certain conditions.
