Florida state law requires businesses with four or more employees, full-time or part-time, to carry workers’ compensation insurance. In the construction industry, businesses with even one employee must provide workers’ comp. This policy covers medical bills for work injuries and illnesses.
Commercial auto insurance
All business-owned vehicles in Florida must be covered by commercial auto insurance. Florida requires $10,000 property damage liability per accident and $10,000 personal injury protection.
