Workers' Comp considerations for demolition contractors
A workers' compensation review should match how your business actually operates. For a demolition contractor, that means separating employee duties, subcontractor relationships, payroll, ownership, job locations, and the work performed in the field. The goal is to present accurate information so a licensed team member can discuss available options subject to eligibility and underwriting.
California requirements can depend on employee status, license classification, entity structure, and current law. The CSLB license class shown here is a starting point, not a substitute for current official guidance. Review the California CSLB resources and discuss your situation with a licensed professional.
