[1](https://www.embroker.com/coverage/workers-compensation-insurance/ "Workers Compensation Insurance: Quotes & Coverage Options") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Product-page description; not a statement about the issuing insurer.) ## Who It’s For - Embroker says workers' compensation is legally required for employers in most U.S. states, that four states (North Dakota, Ohio, Washington and Wyoming) are monopolistic and require buying from the state fund, and that solopreneurs without employees are typically not required to carry it. [1](https://www.embroker.com/coverage/workers-compensation-insurance/ "Workers Compensation Insurance: Quotes & Coverage Options") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Product-page eligibility, 'Is Workers Compensation required by my state?' and 'Do self-employed business owners need workers compensation insurance?' sections; requirements vary by state and are not independently verified here.) ## Coverage Features - Embroker lists coverage for employee medical expenses, lost wages, rehabilitation, death benefits, and legal defense costs if an employee sues over a workplace injury; commuting injuries are excluded. [1](https://www.embroker.com/coverage/workers-compensation-insurance/ "Workers Compensation Insurance: Quotes & Coverage Options") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Product-page What's covered and What's not included sections; the issued policy and declarations control.) ## Limits and Retentions - Embroker describes typical state minimum limits of $100,000 per occurrence and $100,000 per employee for injury claims, and $500,000 for disease-related claims, noting these limits vary by state and can be increased for a higher premium. [1](https://www.embroker.com/coverage/workers-compensation-insurance/ "Workers Compensation Insurance: Quotes & Coverage Options") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Product-page 'What are Workers Compensation limits?' section; actual limits depend on the state and policy purchased.) - Embroker says premiums are driven mainly by employee count, claims history, the type of work performed, and the employer's Experience Modification Rate (XMod), which compares a company's claims history to similar businesses over a three-year period.
