Employers without Workers' Comp Coverage can Face Serious Penalties.
Employers can pay a high price for ignoring workers' compensation rules.
Workers' Compensation coverage, or some similar policy for injured workers, is required for nearly every job in the United States. Some employers try to avoid their legal obligations by avoiding their Workers' Compensation coverage completely. Many employers don't realize this opens their business to large unnecessary liability, fines and even jail.
