As an owner I am not required to provide Workmans Compensation for myself or any principals of the company.

I go to jobsites and by doing so run the risk of getting hurt.

Workers Comp is expensive and in the past I have chose not to buy it.

There is a way to be protected if you are a "non tools on" employee or owner.

You can file yourself as a salesman and receive Workers Comp for about $200 a year.

This is not a scam... I go to jobsites not only to check up on the men but also to sell extras and or new work.

My insurance company suggested that I do it this way. It saves me alot of money and I still get the bennies.
