Frequently asked questions
Do C-10 electricians need workers' comp?
If you have employees, yes — California Labor Code 3700 requires it. With no employees you can currently file an exemption, but beginning January 1, 2028 (SB 1455), CSLB will require workers' comp for all active licenses; only joint-venture licenses remain exempt.
