Government agencies that hire contractors for public improvement projects can now require contracts to include a provision letting the agency verify the contractor has workers' compensation insurance before work begins and monitor that coverage throughout the project. The agency can request documentation of insurance payments, lists of subcontractors, employee payroll records, and other information needed to prevent workers' compensation fraud.
