Re: workers comp for corporate officers
Your right to workers compensation insurance is established by the Labor Code, and therefore may not be "waived" by anyone without your knowledge or consent. All employees are covered. You would be well served by seeking representation immediately. Please contact me directly at (619) 222-3504.
