WORKERS COMPENSATION INSURANCE FOR NJ WORKERS

As its name indicates, workers or employees are protected by Workers Compensation Insurance. Employers are obligated to have this insurance in place, but you should be aware that it only covers a worker who becomes ill or injured while on the job. Just being employed does not mean you are covered, the compensation is only available to you if you are injured or become ill while you are at work. If illness or injury occur while you are off the clock, you are not covered.

If you take a job in a dangerous environment, be sure the employer has Workers Compensation Insurance in place. Generally speaking, all part and full-time workers are covered by Workers Compensation Insurance. Workers Compensation coverage provides recovery of lost wages when you are unable to work due to an injury or illness that occurred while you were at work. If you are an independent contractor working for yourself, you have to purchase your own personal Workers Compensation Insurance. Bogle Agency Insurance is an experienced and reliable insurance resource that has been helping individuals and businesses with proper insurance protections needed in NJ for many years.

To repeat what was previously discussed, you must become ill or injured while at work for this coverage to protect you.
