In the state of Missouri, any employer with five or more employees and any employer in the construction industry with one or more employees is required to maintain workers’ compensation coverage for its employees. An employer in Missouri may satisfy this requirement by either obtaining a workers’ compensation policy or obtaining permission from the Division of Workers’ Compensation (Division) to self-insure its workers’ compensation liabilities.

We recommend that you make contact with the insurance carrier listed to verify coverage. Some insurers (and self-insured employers) choose to have some or all of their workers' compensation claims handled day-to-day by "Third-Party Administrators" [TPAs]. The available information does not necessarily identify all of the insurers or self-insurers who may use TPAs or the contact information for the TPAs, which can change frequently. Further, the issuance of a valid policy of workers' compensation insurance (or the authority to self-insure) does not obligate the insurer (or self-insurer) to pay all the benefits demanded by any claimant. Typically, an insurer (or self–insurer) will investigate each claim and make an initial determination whether to pay benefits voluntary or to deny the claim. A claimant who is dissatisfied with the decision of the insurer (or self-insurer) may take additional steps to seek the desired benefits, as discussed elsewhere on this web site.
