Under New Jersey labor codes, statutory coverage is mandated by New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development - Division of Workers' Compensation: Mandatory for all employers with 1 or more employees under N.J.S.A. 34:15-1 et seq. Certain high-hazard trades require coverage starting with the very first employee.
How does Pay-As-You-Go workers' compensation work for Essex employers?
