Why Workers Compensation Insurance Is Essential for Landscaping Companies

Landscaping is more dangerous than most people realize. Between using heavy equipment, working long hours in the heat, and lifting heavy materials, the chance of injury is always present.

That is why workers compensation insurance is such an important piece of protection for your business.

In Georgia, companies with three or more employees are required by law to carry workers compensation coverage. But even if you employ just one or two people, it is still one of the most valuable policies you can have.

Workers’ compensation can help cover:

• Medical expenses from on-the-job injuries

• Lost wages while employees recover

• Legal costs if an employee sues for damages

It does not just protect your team; it protects you as the owner. It helps ensure your employees are cared for and your business remains financially stable after an accident.
