Who Needs General Liability Insurance in Florida
Florida law requires general liability coverage for framing contractors with one or more employees. Sole proprietors and partners may be exempt, but corporate officers in the construction industry must be covered unless they file a specific exemption with the Florida Division of Workers' Compensation. Subcontractors without their own coverage may be treated as employees of the general contractor.
How Rates Are Calculated
Florida general liability rates are set by NCCI advisory filings and approved by the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation. Your final premium is calculated as: (Payroll ÷ 100) × Class Code Rate × Experience Modifier. Contractors with a clean loss history and an active drug-free workplace program can qualify for discounts of up to 5%.
