Elevator Workers Compensation Insurance

OUR COVERAGES

Working on elevators can be a dangerous job, and if you or your employees get injured on the job and can’t work, you could be putting yourself in a tricky financial situation.

Because of the unique risks caused by working on elevators, having elevator contractor’s workers compensation is a must. For business owners, protecting your contractors or inspectors can protect your assets in the event of a work-related injury, and in many states, it is a legal requirement for all businesses.

Why Do Elevator Contractor’s Need Workers Compensation Insurance?

Many professions in construction and contracting require workers compensation because they can potentially lead to accidents that could cause injury. Elevator contractors, mechanics, and installers are no exception. In fact, their risks are more unique than general contractors, meaning workers compensation insurance for contractors that specialize in elevator repairs is even more crucial.

Some of these hazards include:

Heights

Naturally, if you’re working on elevators, you’ll encounter heights, which can lead to falls and dropped objects. If you’re working in an office building or heavy-duty industrial elevators, heights will play a greater risk factor.

Heavy Lifting

Working in the industrial space is going to require heavy lifting. With elevators being made primarily of steel, maneuvering different equipment around can lead to injuries that could cause you to miss work.

Tight Spaces

Elevator shafts are tight spaces that technicians will need to be able to access. Because there is nowhere to go, if something goes wrong, you become even more susceptible to injury and lost time. This isn’t common in other industrial industries, which makes workers compensation extremely important.

Electrical Hazards

While many industries are prone to electrical accidents, elevator contractors become exposed during the installation process and during repairs if there is some electrical issue or arc flash. And if you’re working on a larger electrical system, the dangers could be even more extreme.
