Employers in Santa Clarita, CA, we want you to understand why you need to undergo an extra step with your workers’ compensation insurance in some industries. Construction professionals, for example, must obtain a Certificate of Workers’ Compensation Insurance to obtain and renew their licenses. Although you could purchase your workers’ comp coverage anywhere, know that only an insurance agency, such as QuoteBroker Insurance Services, that’s licensed to sell California workers comp policies can provide this to you.
Vetting Your Insurer
Whether you operate a plumbing company, a general contracting service, or some other construction trade, your insurance company must have a license to sell California workers comp policies. Before you purchase your insurance, ask for proof of the insurer’s license to sell workers comp policies in CA.
Buying Your Policy
Design your ideal worker’s compensation policy with your insurance agent. Pay for your policy. You immediately obtain a copy of your policy. Some licensing boards require this certificate rather than a copy of your policy. Check with your industry’s licensing board to learn the requirements for your license.
Call or Email Your Insurer
When you need to apply for or renew your license, contact your insurance agent to request your certificate of insurance. This certificate takes a specific format, and only those approved to offer the insurance policies can create a certificate. For example, general contractors in the state must provide this certificate to the Contractors State License Board to obtain their license. Your agent emails you a copy of the certificate and, typically, sends a hard copy through the postal mail.
