What is Workers Compensation Insurance?

Almost 90 years ago North Carolina implemented the workers compensation act in an effort to deliver a legal compromise between the employer and employee. The law requires that injuries arising from the scope of employment is to be compensated by the employer. Workers compensation is aimed to deliver recovery for the loss of earning power, only. The employer is not required to indemnify the worker, issue recovery in the event of pain and suffering or loss of consortium. He or she is to compensate the injured worker for their inability to work and earn money after the injury occurred.

Are You Required to Provide Coverage?

Workers compensation is required for all sole proprietorships, corporations, LLC’s and partnerships which employ 3 or more people (self-insured employers are also required in specific cases).

*Any business that operates with or around radiation is required to carry workers compensation insurance regardless of the number of employees (i.e. 1 employee or 10, coverage is required).

Even if your business has one employee, we still recommend you seriously consider workers compensation insurance for your employee.
