Division efforts to ensure employer compliance with workers’ compensation coverage requirements

legislative declaration

(1)

The general assembly finds, determines, and declares that it is in the best interests of the public to assure that all employers who fall under the provisions of articles 40 to 47 of this title have in effect current policies of insurance or self-insurance for workers’ compensation liability.

(2)

In order to implement the declaration in subsection (1) of this section, the division shall develop a procedure for verifying whether or not all employers doing business in the state of Colorado comply with the requirements of article 44 of this title. This procedure must include cross-referencing employer records of the division of unemployment insurance and the division of workers’ compensation. Upon identifying employers that are not in compliance with article 44 of this title, the division, with the assistance and cooperation of the attorney general, shall use all available means under articles 40 to 47 of this title to ensure compliance. Every insurance carrier authorized to transact business in this state, including Pinnacol Assurance, which insures employers against liability for compensation under the provisions of articles 40 to 47 of this title, shall furnish the division, upon request, all information required by it to accomplish the purposes of this section.
