Workers' Compensation in Washington: Required
Washington is a monopolistic state — employers must purchase workers' compensation through the Washington State Department of Labor & Industries (L&I), not from private carriers. Coverage is required for any business with one or more employees. Large employers may apply to become certified self-insurers, but most businesses use the state fund.
