Employers need to post their Workers’ Compensation, “Notice of Compliance” notice in a conspicuous place.
“The primary responsibility for obtaining workers’ compensation insurance coverage rests upon employers who must apply for and obtain coverage prior to the hiring of any employee. Insurance agencies and carriers, however, share in this coverage responsibility, beginning with their receipt of an application for coverage. If an agency or carrier refuses to provide coverage on a voluntary basis, they must advise the employer about the availability of coverage under the Assigned Risk Plan of the National Council on Compensation Insurance and must also provide the necessary application form.
After coverage is in effect, the employer will receive from the insurance carrier a NOTICE OF COMPLIANCE, Form No. WCP-1, which needs to be posted in a conspicuous spot in the place of business. This poster contains basic information
regarding the rights and responsibilities of both employer and employees, as well as the name of the insurance carrier underwriting the workers’ compensation coverage.”
