Workers’ Compensation for Contractors and Construction


California construction and contractor businesses have unique insurance, employee classification, and safety requirements. In response to your industry-specific needs, we have developed an educational webinar to review the rules and regulations that apply to your business. 

We’ll be discussing:

  • Construction workers’ compensation requirements and employment status determination
  • Required underwriting information
  • Dual-wage threshold classifications
  • Payroll recordkeeping and timecard requirements
  • Waivers of subrogation & OCIP payroll segregation
  • California Construction Safety Orders
  • Cal/OSHA posting requirements
  • Construction administrative recordkeeping requirements

Our presentation will provide you with valuable information to effectively manage your workers’ compensation program.

Join us for a 40-minute presentation and Q&A session.

Our Employer Education webinars are open to all California employers and insurance brokers.
