Workers’ comp in Georgia

Required?
Conditional
Trigger
3+ employees
State fund only?
No

Independent-contractor test: Common-law right-to-control test (case law)

Not required doesn’t mean not liable: if you don’t carry workers’ comp — even where it isn’t required for you — an injured worker may be able to sue you in court instead of being limited to comp benefits, because the exclusive-remedy shield generally depends on having coverage.

What coverage do you need?

Minimums are the legal floor, not a recommendation — most operators carry more. Your operation (light-duty, heavy-duty, repo, rotation, motor club) decides which coverages fit. Take the coverage quiz →
