Or. Admin. R. 808-003-0620 - Workers' Compensation Insurance
(1) A nonexempt applicant for the landscape
contracting business license or renewal shall submit a "Certificate of
Insurance" (certificate) from an insurance company authorized to do business in
Oregon, as required by ORS
671.565 and will continue to
meet those insurance requirements for as long as the applicant is licensed. The
certificate shall include the name of the insurance company, policy number, and
coverage amount.
(2) The name of
the entity as it appears on the certificate must be the same as the name on the
landscape contracting business license application or license of record with
the agency and the same entity name filed at the Oregon Corporation Division
(if applicable).
(3) A landscape
contracting business must continuously have in effect workers' compensation
insurance during the licensing period to maintain an active license if the
landscape contracting business has employees.
(4) A new certificate must be on file with
the agency prior to the expiration date on the previous certificate. If the
policy expires and a new certificate is not received on or before 5 pm on the
day of policy expiration and the landscape contracting business has not changed
the employer status designation to exempt, the agency may suspend the landscape
contracting business license.
(5)
Upon cancellation of the workers' compensation insurance required under ORS
671.565 the agency may
immediately suspend the landscape contracting business license as provided for
in 671.610(2)(c).
(6) If a landscape contracting business is
licensed as a sole proprietorship, partnership, limited liability partnership,
limited partnership, joint venture, corporation, limited liability company,
business trust or any other entity and seeks to change the licensed entity to
one of the other entity types and a new license is required, the application
must be accompanied by a new certificate.
(7) A landscape contracting business that is
licensed as exempt and has entered into a contract with a worker leasing
company or temporary service provider for the supplying of workers shall
provide documentation to the agency within 10 days of entering into the
contract that the landscape contracting business has verified the maintenance
of the workers' compensation insurance coverage for all employees supplied by
the leasing company or temporary service provider for the use of the landscape
contracting business. Such verification must also be provided during an
investigation or site check or at any other time the agency requests
it.
