Workers Compensation

Workers’ compensation is essential to help cover the costs of one of your employees becoming injured or ill due to your workplace. Although Texas does not require workers’ compensation insurance, it can be a valuable asset in protecting you against financial losses. Without coverage, you will be responsible for out-of-pocket costs, putting your business at financial risk. Our agents at Vista Insurance are ready to help you sort through your coverage options.
