In California, Workers' Compensation coverage provides two-thirds of a worker's pretax gross income but the income is limited to a maximum amount which may affect higher-earning employees.
CoverWallet's team can help you get Workers' Compensation coverage to keep your business compliant. Our experts can also advise you on other insurance coverages that can protect your business.
Workers' Compensation rates in California are set by the Workers’ Compensation Rating Bureau of California, with each industry having its own rate based on risk. CoverWallet's team can provide coverage based on your industry.
In California, it is illegal to fire or harass an employee for placing a Workers' Compensation Claim. There may be other situations, however, where it is permissible to release an employee who is currently receiving Workers' Compensation benefits.
Sole proprietors without employees in California are not required to purchase Workers’ Compensation coverage. However, a sole proprietor may choose to provide coverage for themselves. It’s also common for companies that hire sole proprietors as independent contractors to require Workers’ Compensation coverage.
