Workers' Compensation

Every business carries liability exposure, and most businesses with employees are required to carry workers’ compensation. The Stewart Agency works with Tulsa business owners and contractors to review their operations, explain their options, and compare coverage from a wide range of carriers.

What General Liability Covers

Bodily Injury

Injuries to customers, vendors, or visitors connected to your business.

Property Damage

Damage your operations cause to someone else’s property.

Products and Completed Operations

Claims arising from products you sell or work you have finished.

Personal and Advertising Injury

Claims such as libel, slander, or copyright infringement in your advertising.

Workers' Compensation

Workers’ compensation pays medical expenses and lost wages for employees injured on the job, and it includes employers liability coverage. Oklahoma requires most employers to carry it, and many contracts require proof of coverage before work begins.

What Business Owners Should Review

  • Classification codes. These should accurately reflect your operations and affect both coverage and premium.
  • Payroll and revenue estimates. These determine your premium and are verified at audit.
  • Contract requirements. Such as additional insured status, waivers of subrogation, and primary and noncontributory wording.
  • Subcontractor coverage. Uninsured subcontractors may be added to your premium at audit.
  • Certificates of insurance. We issue them on your behalf for clients and general contractors.
  • An umbrella policy. It adds liability limits above your general liability, auto, and employers liability coverage.
