Workers Compensation Coverage Provides You and Your Employees with Valuable Protection
Let us guide you through the process.
Avoid a Lawsuit
Workers compensation insurance basically serves two purposes: it assures that injured workers get medical care and compensation for a portion of the wages they lose while they are unable to return to work, and it may protect employers from lawsuits by a worker injured while on the job. If a worker is killed while working, workers compensation may provide death benefits for the worker's dependents.
Connecticut Workers Compensation Insurance
Each state has different laws regarding workers compensation insurance, and in Connecticut it is compulsory that a business owner with employees, has this type of coverage.
Liability Coverage
Workers compensation insurance generally has two parts: Workers compensation and employer's liability. Under workers compensation the insurer contracts to pay whatever the state-required amounts of compensation may be. Employer's liability coverage may provide for an employer who is sued by an employee for a work related bodily injury or illness that isn't subject to state statutory benefits.
