The part that cannot be copied

A roofer with an expiring policy has to buy.

Roofers cannot go without workers' comp at all — there is no exemption available to them, however small the crew. Concrete, HVAC, asbestos and tree-service contractors have been in the same position since the start of 2023. For those trades, coverage is a condition of being allowed to work.

So when the policy runs out, that contractor is not weighing options — they are replacing cover or losing the right to trade. That is a different phone call from “are you happy with your current carrier?”, and it is why which trade you call matters more than how many records you can download.

Every other trade can still declare no employees and skip it until 1 January 2028 — SB 1455 moved that date from 2026 — so {exempt_pct_all}% of active licenses are legitimately exempt today. Every trade is included on Pro and above; we simply put the ones who cannot skip it at the top. The trades, and the law behind it →
