Workers' Compensation Insurance for Florida Employers

Workers' Comp Coverage for Florida Businesses

Merchant Insurance, Inc provides workers' compensation insurance for Florida employers, including businesses that have been declined, non-renewed, or considered difficult to place by other carriers.


Instead of stopping at a difficult claims history or high-risk classification, we look deeper at your claims, employees, operations, and actual exposures before approaching the market.

Who Needs Workers' Compensation Insurance in Florida?

Florida workers' compensation requirements vary based on your industry, number of employees, and other factors. Construction businesses generally face stricter requirements than non-construction employers, and certain business owners or corporate officers may qualify for exemptions.

We help Florida employers understand their situation, properly classify their workforce, and find workers' comp coverage that reflects how their business actually operates.

Why Florida Employers Work With Us

01

We Don't Stop at “Declined”

We place workers' compensation coverage for Florida employers that have been declined or non-renewed elsewhere. A difficult claims history or high-risk operation doesn't automatically end the conversation.

02

We Look Deeper at the Risk

Before approaching carriers, we review your claims history, employee classifications, operations, and exposures. That deeper analysis helps us present your business accurately and pursue coverage options that may otherwise be overlooked.

03

Workers' Comp Is Core to What We Do

Merchant Insurance, Inc focuses 100% on commercial insurance. Workers' compensation isn't an add-on to a personal insurance book — it's one of our core areas of expertise, including coverage for construction and harder-to-place businesses.

Proof of Workers' Comp Coverage, On Your Schedule

Need to provide a client, GC, or property owner with proof of workers' compensation coverage? EasyCOI.com allows you to request certificates of insurance without waiting for a callback.
