Worker’s Compensation Premium
Workers’ compensation premiums are often one of the largest components of an organisation’s total insurance costs. There are also substantial penalties if employers fail to comply with legislated regulations.
Employers have a duty of care to their employees, and in most instances are legally required to provide compensation for death or injury to those employees whilst working.
This is most commonly achieved through legislation which makes it compulsory to arrange insurance protection (often referred to as “workers’ compensation”, “workmen’s compensation” or “employers liability” insurance.)
Apart from any specific statutory liability, an organisation may also be liable to its employees under common law, depending upon the state and/or country in which it engages these workers.
