In the state of New York, it is required for all business to carry Worker's Compensation Insurance, even if there is only one employee. Although Worker's Compensation laws vary depending on the state, New York, along with Utah and Nevada, require all businesses to carry Worker's Compensation Insurance, even if you are the only employee, and also the sole proprietor of the company.

A Worker's Compensation Insurance policy is meant to provide protection for both a company and the employees in case any of the employees are injured on the job. It is different from a disability policy, since disability will provide coverage if the employee is injured outside of the job. Worker's Compensation provides a pay out to the injured employee after they are injured on the job to cover the income that is lost when they are not able to work due to their injury. Worker's Compensation payments are always tax-free, unlike both disability and unemployment benefits.
