Employers without coverage II

This post is another call to those employers who haven’t yet obtained coverage.

As seen here in an article from the Californian, a Salinas based newspaper; the service station employer/owner was placed on probation for three years and is required to pay a $10,000 fine for not carrying coverage.

The article doesn’t mention this, but it’s likely that she was shut down until such time that she could prove that she obtained coverage. How many days could that have taken? Whatever it was, that’s a lot of revenue for a gas station to go without. Note also that she pleads guilty. She had no choice.

If you’re an employer without coverage, contact your local broker, (or myself), and get covered now.
Don’t take the chance that the Department of Industrial relations won’t find you.

Cheers, your work comp wonk.
