Protect your employees and your business

As your business grows, the number of people you hire naturally increases. That includes both full-time employees and independent contractors who do work for your company. The more people you have working for you, the more likely that someone could get sick or have an accident at work.

This is where workers’ compensation comes in. The importance of having worker’s comp insurance should not be overlooked, no matter the size or industry of your business.

Workers compensation insurance is a legal requirement for most employers in most US states. While it's mandatory, taking out workers’ comp insurance is also incredibly important as it helps keep employees safe if something happens to them at work. It can also help safeguard your business as you'll be protected in the event of an accident.

Workers’ compensation insurance can help protect your business from expensive lawsuits and settlements that could come from employees injured on the job. In addition to covering the cost of medical treatments for your employees, it may also pay for lost wages and other expenses related to their injuries.

BE COVERED FOR ANY SITUATION

Medical expenses:

Our medical expenses cover provides you and your employees with peace of mind, knowing that they will be covered for expenses if they get sick or injured while at work. It also has the option to include their dependents, up to a total of three family members.

Compensation for fatal injuries:

Helping ensure that employees are compensated for injuries sustained from work accidents is a big part of our job. Our compensation for fatal injuries at work is designed to help your business plan for and deal with the possible loss of an employee.

Missed wages during recovery:

In certain cases, severe injuries may result in a total loss of wages. To ensure that employees injured on the job receive all the means to support their families that they are entitled to, we pay missed wages to employees who are unable to work due to sickness or injury. This also covers accidents that lead to an employee becoming disabled, or passing away as a result of their job injury.

Lawsuits related to work injuries:

Workers compensation is a system to protect employees against lawsuits for accidents at work. The workers' injuries are covered by the employer (generally the business or organization) and the insurance company on behalf of the business. This is designed to avoid the legal costs associated with hiring a lawyer for minor workplace injuries, which in some situations can be avoided altogether.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT WORKERS’ INSURANCE COVERAGE FOR YOU AND YOUR BUSINESS

As a business owner, you want to ensure your workers are covered by a reliable insurance plan. If something happens to one of your workers on the job, you could face hefty fines or even worse.

Here are some tips to help you choose the right workers’ insurance cover for you and your business:

1. Get the right amount of coverage

Make sure that you are confident that your chosen plan covers you and your employees for any possible situation. Unexpected accidents can set a business back significantly if the employer is not sufficiently covered.

You’ll want to consider the type of business you have, and carry out a risk assessment on the place of work that your employees operate in. This way, you can fully determine how much you should invest in your workers’ compensation insurance plan.

2. Consider your budget

Not everyone is on the same budget. Think about what you can realistically afford now and make sure it reflects your future financial situation too.

Workers’ comp insurance should be a long term priority, not a quick fix. Investing well in your employees and putting their safety first will pay off in the future.

3. Understand what's not covered

When you’re deciding on insurance coverage, it’s important to understand what you and your employees will be protected against with each plan.

Knowing as much information as possible before making a decision will ensure that you do not take out the wrong coverage, or have any surprises later down the line.
