I have read all of this replys and have come to the conclusion that florida has a bigger problem. they require contractors as myself to carrier wc on all employees. I also have to carrier a com. liabilty insurance policy that provides medical insurance for all of my employees. Which brings up the prices i have to charge, which to make sure i cover wc, i have to charge accordingly, but then i open my company up to price gouging under florida laws. So either way you go as a contractor you open yourself up for a fine or jail time. Seems Florida law makers and law agencies just want to make sure they have a way to get even more money from you. Since the storm every county, city or state agency has upped the fees for every little thing. Just seems there ought to be a agency that can regulate them for price gouging.

Workers comp is a bogus florida law.
