Workers' Compensation — FAQ

Common questions about workers' compensation

Bridge painting typically uses codes specific to structural painting or iron/steel work in states that have those codes, otherwise falling into general painting codes. Correct code placement is important for rate accuracy and audit compliance — we verify this before binding.

Workers comp covers occupational disease — including lead toxicity from sustained exposure during bridge blasting. Medical treatment, wage replacement, and disability benefits for lead-related conditions are covered WC claims.
