Requirements for businesses applying for permits

Workers’ Compensation Law §57 and §220[8] require the heads of all municipal and state entities to ensure that businesses applying for permits, licenses, or contracts have appropriate workers’ compensation and/or disability and Paid Family Leave benefits insurance coverage. (Municipal entities include counties, towns, and villages.) This requirement applies to both original issuances and renewals, and also applies whether the government entity is having the work done or is simply issuing the permit, license, or contract.
