Frequently asked questions
Do I need workers' compensation if I'm a sole proprietor?
States have specific rules for sole proprietors and subcontractors. A licensed agent can review whether you need coverage or an exemption based on how your business is set up and where you operate.
Can an agency issue certificates of insurance quickly?
Most independent agencies issue certificates of insurance (COIs) for general contractors and project owners. Ask about turnaround time when an agency contacts you.
What affects a contractor's premium?
Trade, payroll, claims history, project size, and subcontractor use all factor in. Independent agents can shop several carriers to find a fit.
