If I Don’t Have Employees, Do I Need Workers’ Comp?

Even if you don’t have any people on staff, you may be surprised to learn that workers’ comp coverage is still a good idea (or required, in some cases). You should purchase a policy (or consider it) if you fall into one of these categories:

• You’re a solo business owner who could be injured on the job, so you want coverage for yourself.
• You hire independent contractors or subcontractors, even part time. Check your state’s laws for requirements.
• You’re an independent contractor being asked to provide proof of workers’ comp coverage in order to be hired. In your case, check out a workers’ comp ghost policy.
