Hiring 1099 contractors that are not insured?
I hire friends and some of their friends to help set up events. Each event is different and these guys work for multiple companies not just mine. I have them sign a Independent Contractor agreement stating that they are responsible for their own taxes and insurance. Non of these guys have any kind of insurance. With this industry no one is put on payroll. I'm afraid if someone gets hurt that they could come after me. I do have general liability but they keep charging me fees for the uninsured buddies. Does anybody have any ideas on how I can get workmen's comp on IC? IS there such a thing? Or any type of insurance for the IC?

You'll have to check with the state in which the work is being done, but I don't think you can get workman's comp for 1099 workers. Again though, check through the state. Good luck.

Look into Occupational/Accident (OCC/ACC) insurance. I have similar situation in trucking industry. My drivers are owner operators (O/O) and therefore independent business associates or 1099 employees. They are able to obtain this insurance for appx $150/mo and most trucking companies REQUIRE that this coverage. I don't have any idea how much it would be for other occupations. Google it and just weed through the ones for truckers and you'll find those for geared towards anyone -- like Zurich -- here's the website -- http://www.zurichna.com/zus/zsource.nsf/display?openform&id=141

You'd better develop a close relationship with an insurance agent, someone you trust and can depend on.
Ins itself can be a nightmare, but it is a worse nightmare if you don't have what you need.
Find a good one., today. Now!

Would you like to offer them an affordable benefits package that costs only $49.95/month? You can pay for it or do pay roll deduction.

Since it is affordable and includes all benefits, it is of great value to the employer and the employee.

Check out the details here:

A sub-contract agreement is good. Holding you harmless against any injury or Liability brought by them.

HOWEVER...These guy's are still your responsibility...which means the owner of the project can come after you first...not them. You are ultimately responsible.

I tell my insureds who use IC's to send them in my office. I write a General Liability policy on them (usually and Artisan contractor policy) runs around $500-$750 with $1,000,000 limits.
Each Ic has one and I also add an additional insured endorsement naming "you" as additional insured on there policy.

They aren't required by law to have work comp unless they have employees but it would be advisable to ad this in your sub-contract agreement.

Make sure you get a certificate of Ins from them on th liability.

When you are audited show your Ins co the certificates. Then they won't charge an additional fee.

That agreement means nothing, except for taxes. If you hire an uninsured sub, YOU are ultimately responsible for both their general liability AND their workers comp benefits - EVEN if you don't carry workers comp for them.

Yes, state law is pretty clear - if they get hurt, YOU will pay. Uninsured subs are called "employees" from a WC point of view. You pay based on the job cost - if the job cost to hire one of their subs is $10,000, that whole amount counts as payroll, in THAT class code, for YOUR workers comp policy.

You can't sign that away with a piece of paper, no matter what it says. It's "against public interest", and a judge won't even allow it in court.

See this link here, about trying to get away without insurance by calling people subcontractors - dollars to donuts, these guys have to show up when you tell them, and can't send someone else in their place, which makes them EMPLOYEES, even if you don't take taxes out:

You are taking a risk, if anything happens it will come back on you. You are the contractor and your license requires you to have insurance, they are contractors also and they are required to have insurance, if they don't you are the one that assumed the responsibility. Good luck, you'll need it.
