Workers’ Compensation insurance (sometimes labeled workman’s compensation insurance, workers’ liability insurance or workers’ comp insurance) covers an employee’s medical expenses and even a portion of their lost wages if they are injured on the job.
Most states require business owners to purchase Workers’ Compensation insurance for their employees. Because Workers’ Compensation insurance is mandated by law, some business owners often think that it is just an additional overhead expense that provides very little benefit; however, good Workers’ Compensation insurance is actually an affordable benefit that protects both the business and its employees.
As an employer, it is your responsibility if your employee is injured on the job. In order to protect yourself against unanticipated medical costs, it is essential to have a Workers’ Compensation policy that adequately covers your business and employees.
