For Texas businesses, workers compensation insurance is a critical safeguard. When an employee gets injured on the job, the financial burden can be significant. Medical bills, rehabilitation costs, and lost income can quickly add up, putting a strain on both the employee and the employer. Without adequate coverage, your business could face costly out-of-pocket expenses and potential legal liabilities.
Workers compensation insurance helps protect your business from these risks by covering:
Medical expenses related to work injuries
Lost wages during the employee’s recovery period
Rehabilitation and therapy costs
Legal expenses if an employee files a lawsuit for a work-related injury
By securing workers compensation insurance, you provide a safety net for your employees and safeguard your business from unexpected financial setbacks.
Each state has a different workers compensation insurance premium, which is determined by a number of criteria, such as:
The number of employees
The nature of their work
Your claims history
Your industry
Classification codes determine insurance rates, assessing the risk associated with jobs and industries. Higher-risk jobs typically incur higher insurance costs. Correctly classifying each employee can help reduce your Workers Compensation policy costs. For instance, an administrative assistant at a construction company will have a lower rate than a construction worker.
