As an employer, it's your responsibility to provide a safe work environment in which your employees can perform their jobs with minimal risk. This includes installing safety features (such as handrails on staircases) and providing safety equipment when needed (such as aprons and goggles). But even in the most cautious workplaces, employees can still get injured or fall ill on the job.
If this happens, workers compensation insurance can step in to cover the injured employee's lost wages during recovery. In exchange for this financial benefit, employees forfeit the right to sue their employer (in most cases) to recover damages. This makes workers compensation insurance beneficial to both employees and employers.
Fortunately, your local insurance agent can help you find the right coverage to add to your business insurance portfolio. With your agent's help, you can get quick, free quotes from a variety of insurance providers. This allows you to make the best decision to match the needs of your business. And although a low rate is desirable, don't forget that getting the right level of coverage to protect your employees is just as important.
