When onboarding with GoTu, 1099 professionals opt into occupational insurance coverage to protect against injuries while at a client’s location. If an incident occurs, both professionals and offices are encouraged to contact GoTu’s customer success team right away so we can assist with the appropriate insurance coverage. GoTu provides all W2 professionals with workers' compensation coverage. In the event of an injury, professionals should notify GoTu immediately so we can promptly report the claim and ensure coverage.
