For which of the following is workers compensation coverage optional in Georgia?

  1. Corporations

  2. Partnerships

  3. Independent contractors

  4. Sole proprietors

The correct answer is: Sole proprietors

In Georgia, sole proprietors have the option to elect workers' compensation coverage for themselves. This means that while it is available, it is not mandatory for sole proprietors to carry this insurance unless they choose to do so. This is in contrast to other business structures such as corporations and partnerships, where the need for worker's compensation coverage is more stringent. Independent contractors, while also having an option in many situations, are typically not classified as employees for the purpose of workers' compensation insurance, which further differentiates them from sole proprietors who can opt into the coverage. In summary, the nature of a sole proprietor's business allows for personal choice regarding the purchase of workers' compensation coverage, making it optional rather than legally required.
