Overview

Nevada is one of the strictest states when it comes to workers' compensation requirements. Almost every business with one or more employees must carry workers' comp — failure to comply can result in fines of up to $15,000 and criminal penalties.

Workers' compensation covers medical expenses, lost wages, and rehabilitation costs for employees who are injured or become ill on the job. It also provides employer's liability protection, shielding your business from lawsuits by injured workers.

Family Insurance works with top-rated workers' comp carriers and state-fund alternatives to find the most competitive rates for your industry classification code. We also help you implement safety programs that can reduce your experience modification rate (EMR) and lower premiums over time.

Frequently asked questions

Is workers' comp required in Nevada?

Yes — nearly all Nevada employers must carry workers' compensation insurance, even with just one employee. Sole proprietors and some corporate officers may opt out.

How are workers' comp premiums calculated?

Premiums are based on your industry classification code, total payroll, and experience modification rate (EMR). Safer workplaces earn lower EMRs and lower premiums.

What happens if I don't have workers' comp?

Operating without required workers' comp in Nevada is a criminal offense. Fines can reach $15,000, and you'll be personally liable for all injury costs.
