Re: Workers comp exempt

Given that there is only a single, part-time helper, he probably will not need worker's compensation.

However, there are a number of issues about which your husband may not know which could cause him problems later on.

If you or your husband would like to discuss these issues, I would be happy to discuss them with you at your convenience.
