Workers' Compensation insurance is mandatory for Illinois employers - from one employee to many, and part-time workers as well as family members of the owner(s) employed by the family business. It's optional for sole proprietors, corporate officers, business partners, and members of limited liability companies, except for employers in hazardous occupations such as construction and trucking.
Employers that knowingly and willfully fail to provide workers' compensation insurance can be fined up to $500 for every day of non-compliance, with a minimum fine of $10,000. Corporate officers who negligently fail to provide insurance are also guilty of a Class A misdemeanor. Learn more from the Illinois Workers' Compensation Commission
