The California Division of Industrial Relations has launched operation Insurance Coverage. The operation is designed to target employers who do not purchase Worker’s Compensation Insurance. John Dugan, head of the Division, says the program is designed to “systematically identify unlawfully uninsured employers to prioritize as enforcement targets.”
The project is funded by SB 869, which authorized a special fund to be used. The fund will receive credits for enforcement penalties, so expect DIR to be aggressive with fines and penalties so as to recoup the investigative dollars spent. Several state agencies have agreed to share data, including the EDD, UEF, and rating agencies licensed by the Insurance Department.
