Another Contractor Arrested W/O Work Comp

In New York a contractor was arrested Tuesday and charged with a felony for failing to provide proper coverage to his employees during a project in Cayuga County, the New York state inspector general said.

The contractor refused to carry Work Comp for his employees, placing them at risk and giving the contractor unfair advantage over his competitors in pricing bids.

Again, CA needs to be so much more aggressive towards the same. Ultimately, by coming down hard on the businesses which are following the rules, it would help drive down the costs of insurance as more people would share the costs of risk ....not to mention, providing the proper care for injured workers.
