Do Independent Contractors In California Need To Carry Workmen's Comp Insurance? |
I am a freelancer in California and am being asked by clients for shore of workmen's comp, business license, liability insurance, etc. etc. - Sounds to me that they want me to be a insignificant business - Is that correct? I am clearly an independent contractor - What is the deal?
| Answer: Most states have laws in vicinity where you aren't required to have workers' comp coverage unless you have a certain total of employees. You therefore may not be required to have coverage, but if so many clients are asking you about it, it might be a good idea to get it. Depending on what keyboard of work you do, it might not be too expensive. You might want to contact the California Division of Workers' Comp for more details: http://www.dir.ca.gov/dwc/dwc_living quarters_page. |
