Workers’
Compensation
In the state of California, workers’ compensation insurance is not only required, it is a misdemeanor not to carry it and failure to do so can result in not only penalties but in jail time as well. There are few exceptions to this law. In fact, the only time an employer does not need to carry workers’ compensation is when an employee is an owner of the company (15% or more) or an independent contractor.
As with all things in HR, the world of workers’ compensation and safety regulations is ever-changing. We make sure that you are in compliance whether it is establishing a policy, claims management, OSHA regulations, customized injury and illness prevention programs, safety meetings and trainings, and everything in between.
Risk Management
Having a workers’ compensation policy is not enough. You have to also manage your safety and develop a risk management plan that can include but is not limited to ergonomics, safety meetings, Injury and Illness Prevention Plans, safety programs and trainings, OSHA compliance, and personal protective equipment. The goal is to provide the safest workplace possible for your employees, encourage them to maintain safe work practices and make it a priority to keep themselves and their co-workers safe, and make your employees feel comfortable reporting injuries when they do happen. All of these measures contribute to a safer work environment which helps keep the cost of your workers’ compensation insurance as low as possible.
