I had a client from Martinez, Georgia, who was working for a small roofing company, call me and ask me if all employees that are hurt on the job in the state of Georgia are covered by workers’ compensation insurance. If you’re reading this, you may have a similar question. I’ll share with you what I shared with that client.
In the state of Georgia, employers with three or more employees are required to have workman’s compensation insurance. Employers that have three or more employees are governed by the Georgia Workers’ Compensation Act. Many times, these small employers do not have coverage, but sometimes they do.
If you’ve been injured at work and have questions about insurance coverage, and whether you’re covered by the Georgia Workers’ Compensation Act, give us a call. We’d be happy to help.
