Workers Compensation

Workers Compensation Insurance

Workers Compensation Insurance is essential for any contractor who employs staff or subcontractors. It covers costs associated with workplace injuries or illnesses, including medical treatment, rehabilitation, and lost wages. In many states, it’s legally required once you hire your first employee.

Accidents can happen anywhere — a fall from a ladder, tool mishandling, or repetitive strain from heavy lifting. With Workers Comp in place, your business can handle these setbacks without financial strain, and your employees know they’re supported.

Beyond meeting legal requirements, Workers Comp fosters a culture of safety and professionalism. It shows clients and workers alike that you value your people — and that you’re prepared for anything.

Workers Compensation laws vary by state, but most require coverage once you hire even one employee. Not having it can lead to hefty fines, lawsuits, or even forced business closure. It’s not just about compliance — it’s about protecting your workforce and reducing risk for your company.

This insurance also covers long-term injuries or illnesses that develop over time. Repetitive stress injuries like carpal tunnel or chronic back pain from lifting heavy loads are common in construction and can lead to extended time off work. Workers Comp helps bridge that financial gap while employees recover.

Providing this coverage can also lower employee turnover. Workers who feel safe and supported are more loyal, productive, and invested in your business. It fosters a workplace culture where safety is a shared responsibility, and morale improves when employees know their well-being matters.

From electricians and roofers to landscapers and painters, workers face hazards every day. Having the right protection in place keeps your business running smoothly even when someone gets hurt.
