Workers Compensation Insurance & Coverage

Workers Comp Insurance

WORKERS’ COMPENSATION DONE BETTER

You think your business is safe. You’ve got employees directing people to dressing rooms and ringing up their wardrobe additions. You’ve got a waiter serving food, or a bank teller depositing checks. What could go wrong?

Maybe nothing, but consider: The clothing retailer falls out of a display window while dressing a mannequin. Your waiter gets chomped by a lobster while hand-diving in the fresh seafood tank. Your bank teller - surely this is a harmless profession? - but what if they trip over a pile of money and suffer an injury. And what about the employee using their own vehicle to do your jobs? Even if they’re just picking up lunch for the team - coverage for office workers using their own vehicles on company business is often needed as well.

There really is no job without it’s safety hazards. Read an OSHA brochure - the workplace is rife with the potential for injury. It’s your job to look after your workforce.

To protect yourself and your business, you need Workers’ Compensation Insurance. This coverage pays for medical care, the physical and sometimes mental rehabilitation of employees injured at work and also helps them to replace lost wages while they are unable to work. Additionally, this coverage protects an employer from being sued by an injured worker in most cases.
