Notice; worker's compensation coverage
Sec. 22. (a) Each employer subject to IC 22-3-2 through IC 22-3-6
shall post a notice in the employer's place of business to inform the
employees that their employment is covered by worker's
compensation. The notice must also contain the name, address, and
telephone number of the employer's insurance carrier or the person
responsible for administering the employer's worker's compensation
claims if the employer is self insured.
(b) The notice required under this section must be in a form
approved by the board and shall be posted at a conspicuous location
at the employer's place of business to provide reasonable notice to all
employees. If the employer is required by federal law or regulation
to post a notice for the employer's employees, the notice required
under this section must be posted in the same location or locations
where the notice required by federal law or regulation is posted.
(c) An employer who fails to comply with this section is subject
to a civil penalty of fifty dollars ($50), to be assessed and collected
by the board. Civil penalties collected under this section shall be
deposited in the state general fund.
