Owner ops are you buying worker comp insurance for yourself?

Yes, most companies you lease into will require it, but if you have your own authority it’s still probably a good idea. Google Occupational Accident insurance.

 

Getting an occupational accident policy on yourself will be cheaper than an actual work comp policy.

 

In a lot of states you still need an actual workmans comp policy even if you exclude yourself for it, basically ~$500 for a piece of paper

 

I have to carry it on myself. I am in a safety group and my policy runs me around $5k year based on what I pay myself.

 

I wouldn’t think Oc Ac would be more then $2500 per year. I could be wrong though but my owner op indicated that’s how much is was.

 

It’s always been around $150 or so thru OOIDa for oc/acc insurance.

 

Me, no.

 

I think I pay 165 for it, through them.
