Workers Compensation

Required in most states the moment you put a driver on payroll.

Why Cargova

Same coverage. Different outcome.

We work the file by hand

An agent picks which markets see your submission. On a hard file that's most of the outcome.

We tell you when to walk

If this isn't the coverage you need, you'll hear that before you hear a price.

We stay after the bind

Filings, certificates, renewals — the same agent, not a queue.

In short

What workers compensation is.

Pays medical costs and lost wages when an employee is hurt on the job. Requirements are set state by state, and penalties for going without are steep.

Limits, deductibles and exclusions depend on your operation and the carrier writing it.

Scope

Generally in, generally out.

A rough map. Your policy wording governs — ask your agent about anything here.

Typically addressed

  • Medical treatment for a work injury
  • A portion of lost wages during recovery
  • Employer liability in many forms
  • Death benefits

Typically not

  • Independent contractors in many arrangements
  • Injuries outside the course of employment

Workers Comp questions

I'm an owner-operator with no employees — do I need it?

Often not, though some states and many contracts still require it. Occupational accident coverage is the common alternative.

Why do rates differ so much by state?

Workers comp is state-regulated, and trucking class codes carry different rates in each. Your garaging state matters.
