## What Is Harper’s Role in Workers’ Compensation Insurance?

- Harper places workers' compensation coverage as a broker, pricing it off a client's actual payroll and job categories rather than underwriting the policy itself. [1](https://www.harperinsure.com/coverages/workers-compensation "Workers Compensation Insurance") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Workers compensation page introduction and 'Why Harper' section.)

## Who Is Harper Workers’ Compensation Insurance For?

- Harper says coverage is legally required in most states from a business's first employee, and that it will confirm the exact requirement for a given state and headcount. [1](https://www.harperinsure.com/coverages/workers-compensation "Workers Compensation Insurance") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Workers compensation page introduction and FAQ 'When am I required to carry it?'.)

## Coverage Features of Harper Workers’ Compensation Insurance

- Harper describes the coverage as paying medical costs and lost wages for employees injured on the job, funding rehabilitation, and including employer's liability for related lawsuits that fall outside the workers' comp system. [1](https://www.harperinsure.com/coverages/workers-compensation "Workers Compensation Insurance") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Workers compensation page's four coverage tiles; the issued policy and state comp statute control actual scope.)

## What Risk Services Come With Harper Workers’ Compensation Insurance?

- Harper says it classifies a client's payroll into the correct job/class codes before binding, since insurers price workers' comp by class code and a wrong classification is a common cause of a large bill at audit. [1](https://www.harperinsure.com/coverages/workers-compensation "Workers Compensation Insurance") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Workers compensation page 'We know this' section and FAQ 'What will the audit look like?'; a described placement practice, not an independently verified outcome.)

[1](https://www.harperinsure.com/coverages/workers-compensation "Workers Compensation Insurance") (Scope: Workers compensation FAQ 'What does it cost?'; figures depend on state rating rules and an actual quote.)
