Framing contractors are the backbone of any construction project—literally. From laying the structural foundation to erecting walls and roofing frameworks, their work is physically demanding and inherently risky.

That’s why having the right Workers Compensation Insurance (also known as Work Comp Coverage) isn’t just smart—it’s essential.


⚠️ Why Framing Contractors Face Higher Risk

Framing involves working at heights, handling heavy materials, and operating power tools. These conditions increase the likelihood of:

  • Falls from scaffolding or ladders

  • Injuries from nail guns, saws, or other equipment

  • Muscle strains from lifting and repetitive motion

  • Exposure to hazardous materials or weather conditions

Even with safety protocols in place, accidents happen. And when they do, your business could face serious financial consequences if you're not properly insured.


✅ What the Right Work Comp Policy Covers

A comprehensive workers compensation policy for framing contractors typically includes:

  • Medical expenses for injured employees

  • Lost wages during recovery

  • Rehabilitation costs

  • Employer liability protection

This coverage not only protects your workers—it shields your business from lawsuits and unexpected costs.
