What is workers’ compensation insurance?
Workers’ compensation insurance helps provide benefits to employees who suffer work-related injuries or illnesses. For California employers, this coverage is an important part of protecting both the business and the people who help keep it running.
Whether you operate a small office, contracting business, restaurant, retail shop, service company, or property management business, having the right workers’ compensation coverage can help you stay compliant and prepared.
Why workers’ compensation matters
Protect Employees
Coverage can help injured employees receive medical care and wage replacement benefits after a covered workplace injury.
Protect Your Business
A single workplace injury can create serious financial exposure. Workers’ compensation helps reduce that risk.
Stay Compliant
California employers are generally required to carry workers’ compensation coverage when they have employees.
