Why Workers’ Comp Insurance?

A good workers’ compensation policy will protect the employer, because the employee who has been injured on-the-job gives up her or his right to sue their employer in exchange for receiving benefits related to their injury. It really is a “win-win” arrangement: the employee gets medical benefits to help them recover from their work-related injury, in addition to wage replacement benefits, and the employer is protected as well, saving money on potential lawsuits.

Who Needs Workers’ Compensation Insurance?

According to Florida law, all businesses with more than three (3) employees are required to have a workers’ compensation insurance policy. Additionally, anyone in the construction industry, with more than one (1) employee is also required to have workers’ comp insurance.
