State of California law requires that every employer provide Workers Compensation insurance on their employees. This insurance covers accidents or disease arising from employment. Benefits include lost wages, medical expenses, rehabilitation, and permanent disfigurement/disability payments.

Does your business have to have Workers’ Compensation insurance? In most cases, if you have any employees, the answer is yes.

Failure to carry Workers’ Compensation insurance exposes the employer to pay what the insurer would have paid, plus severe fines, and possibly jail time for violating the law. The benefits may amount to hundreds of thousands of dollars. The employer has a legal duty to ensure that employees get the legally mandated benefits without delay.
