As a contractor in New York, finding suitable health insurance for yourself and your employees can be challenging. Navigating the landscape of health plans, costs, and compliance requirements means juggling numerous options. Whether you’re a sole proprietor or manage a larger team, understanding what’s available is crucial for ensuring your workforce has access to essential healthcare while maintaining affordability.

This article will cover some of the main health insurance options available to contractors in New York, with a special focus on a comprehensive program offered by BGES Group.

1. Individual Health Insurance Plans

For smaller contractors or those who work independently, individual health insurance plans are an option. You can shop for plans through the New York State of Health marketplace, where you may be eligible for tax credits depending on your income. These plans vary in terms of coverage, with several tiers (Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum) to match your healthcare needs and budget.

While this is a flexible option, it may not be ideal for those managing teams, as it doesn’t provide the benefits of group health insurance.

2. Small Business Health Options Program (SHOP)

The Small Business Health Options Program (SHOP) allows small businesses, including contractors with up to 50 employees, to offer health insurance to their workers. If you have fewer than 25 full-time employees, you may qualify for tax credits to lower the cost of providing coverage. SHOP plans provide a range of options, allowing you to choose the best coverage for your team’s needs.  For more information click here.

Though beneficial for smaller operations, SHOP might not offer the level of customization or additional benefits that larger contractors may seek in their health plans.

3. Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) Plans

HMO plans are a common choice for New York contractors looking to provide structured, affordable care. With an HMO plan, your employees must choose a primary care physician (PCP) who coordinates their healthcare. Referrals are typically required for specialists, and the plan may have a more restricted network of providers.

HMOs are often more cost-effective but can limit flexibility, which might be a downside for employees who prefer to choose their healthcare providers freely.

4. Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) Plans

For contractors seeking a more flexible healthcare option, PPO plans offer a wide range of healthcare providers without the need for referrals to see specialists. Your employees can see any doctor, but in-network services will have lower costs.

While more expensive than HMO plans, PPOs are ideal for larger contractors with employees who may need specialist care without waiting for referrals.

5. Payroll Workers’ Compensation and Group Health Insurance Program

One standout option for New York contractors with at least 10 employees is the Payroll Workers’ Compensation and Group Health Insurance Program offered by BGES Group. This program bundles your payroll services, workers’ compensation coverage, and group health insurance into one streamlined solution. Not only does this simplify your administrative work, but it can also lead to cost savings as BGES Group negotiates competitive rates for comprehensive coverage.

The program is ideal for contractors who want to ensure their employees are covered under both workers’ compensation and health insurance without the hassle of managing multiple providers. Additionally, by offering a group health plan, contractors can improve employee retention, attract new talent, and ensure compliance with state health insurance mandates.

To qualify for this program, your contracting business must have a minimum of 10 employees. Once enrolled, BGES Group will handle the complexities of payroll, workers’ compensation, and group health coverage, making it easier for you to focus on running your projects.

As a contractor in New York, you’re juggling tight schedules, surprise delays, and demanding clients. Your insurance shouldn’t be another headache. Fortunately, BGES Group is here to make sure your business insurance needs are handled with the same care, efficiency, and humor you’d expect from the cast of Seinfeld. So let’s see why Larry David, Jerry Seinfeld, Elaine Benes, and George Costanza would insist that you call BGES Group.

1. Jerry’s “What’s the deal with big insurance agencies?”

Jerry voice: “What’s the deal with these giant insurance agencies? You call them, and you get an answering machine! ‘Please hold… and wait… and wait.’” BGES Group, on the other hand, picks up the phone! When you call, an actual human answers—and not just any human, but someone who understands your needs. It’s like getting front-row seats to your favorite comedy show, but the joke’s on the competition.

2. Larry David’s “Factory vs. Mom-and-Pop Boutiques” Rant

Larry, pacing, annoyed: “You want service, right? REAL service. But these big agencies? They’re factories! They slap fees on everything, like some overcooked burger on a bun. But BGES? They’re like a mom-and-pop boutique. Personal service, no ridiculous fees. It’s like walking into a small deli and the guy behind the counter already knows your order. Now that… that’s service!”

3. George’s Fear of Hidden Fees

George, frantic: “You know what gets me? Hidden fees! You’re already paying for the insurance, and then WHAM! They hit you with fees for… what? Breathing? But BGES? No crazy fees. No surprises. They don’t nickel-and-dime you like my last girlfriend did.” With BGES, you get straightforward pricing and a team that actually has your back. Even George would feel safe here—and that’s saying something.

4. Elaine’s “Get OUT!” Service

Elaine pushing you across the room: “You call them, and they actually answer?! GET OUT!” Yes, Elaine, BGES Group answers the phone every time. And not just with a “Hello, hold please,” but with real, attentive service. They’re not a big agency running on voicemail and hold music; they’re the type of people who get stuff done fast—without you having to yell at your phone. It’s enough to make Elaine dance.

5. George’s “Short, Stocky, and Insurance-Wise” Attitude

George wagging his finger: “Look, I’m short, I’m stocky, I’m bald—and I’m frugal. When it comes to insurance, I don’t want the big flashy stuff. I want something that works for me, fits my needs, and doesn’t break the bank!” BGES Group fits the bill for contractors. They don’t try to upsell you on policies you don’t need. They’re practical, thorough, and affordable—just how George likes it.

6. Jerry’s “It’s All About Balance” Philosophy

Jerry quizzically smiling: “You’ve got coverage, you’ve got service. It’s all about balance. BGES Group? They get that. They keep your business protected without the fluff. It’s like a perfectly balanced punchline. Not too much, not too little—just right!” For Jerry, that’s what BGES offers: insurance that keeps your business steady, without overwhelming you.

7. Larry David’s “Pret-ty, Pret-ty, Pret-ty Good Policies”

If Larry David were reviewing BGES Group, he’d say, “Pret-ty, pret-ty, pret-ty good.” They handle everything from workers’ comp to liability insurance, and they don’t make you jump through hoops to get the right coverage. It’s straightforward, easy, and something even Larry wouldn’t feel like nitpicking about… much.

8. George’s “Risk Management Paranoia”

George sweating profusely: “You’re a contractor! You’re surrounded by risk! You’ve got workers’ comp claims, liability, the guy carrying the ladder. You need insurance for that stuff, right? Right?!” BGES Group understands the risks contractors face and builds customized insurance plans to protect you from every angle. No more sleepless nights wondering what might go wrong—George already did that for you.

9. Elaine’s “Boutique Service Means No Machines” Dance

Elaine flailing her arms: “You call these big companies, and what do you get? A machine! ‘Press 1 for frustration. Press 2 to wait 20 minutes.’ Not BGES! They’re like a cute boutique that picks up the phone and knows who you are. You talk to a real person! And that person knows how to handle your problem. It’s like having a personal insurance concierge!”

10. Jerry’s “Insurance About Nothing… Stressful!”

Jerry shrugging: “BGES Group—It’s insurance about nothing… nothing stressful, that is. No crazy fees, no endless phone trees, no aggressive sales tactics. Just straightforward, boutique-level service that makes sure your business is covered without the drama. You’d think insurance would be boring, but BGES makes it simple. It’s kind of like watching an episode of Seinfeld—entertaining and oddly comforting.”

For New York contractors, securing the right insurance coverage is not just a legal requirement but a critical part of protecting your business, employees, and assets. The construction industry is inherently risky, with accidents, property damage, and lawsuits all potential threats to a contractor’s bottom line. Choosing the right Commercial General Liability (CGL) and Umbrella Liability insurance is essential to safeguard against these risks and ensure that your business can continue operating without devastating financial losses.

Here’s what every New York contractor should consider when buying these key insurance policies:

1. General Liability Coverage

At the heart of any contractor’s insurance portfolio is a Commercial General Liability (CGL) policy. This is the foundation of your protection and covers many of the common risks contractors face, including:

        •         Bodily Injury: Covers claims arising from injuries to non-employees caused by your work or on your worksite.

        •         Property Damage: Protects against damage you or your employees cause to someone else’s property during the course of work.

        •         Completed Operations: Covers claims made after the work is completed, such as if a customer claims your work caused property damage or injury after a project is finished.

        •         Products Liability: Protects you from claims related to products you’ve installed that cause harm or damage.

2. Additional Insured Endorsement

New York contractors should always look for policies that offer additional insured endorsements. This endorsement extends coverage to other parties (such as project owners, general contractors, or subcontractors) involved in the work. These endorsements are often required by contract and protect other entities from lawsuits that may arise from your work.

3. Primary and Non-Contributory Coverage

Another critical factor is ensuring that your policy provides primary and non-contributory coverage. This means that your insurance is the primary source of coverage in the event of a claim and does not require the additional insured’s policy to contribute. For contractors, having this coverage is often a contractual requirement and ensures a smooth claims process when other parties are involved.

4. Labor Law Coverage (240/241)

In New York, Labor Laws 240 and 241 create unique risks for contractors, as these laws impose strict liability on employers for certain worksite injuries, especially those involving falls. Your general liability and umbrella policies should include coverage for claims related to these labor laws, protecting you from the potentially massive costs of these claims.

5. Action Over Claims Coverage

An action over claim arises when an injured subcontractor’s employee sues your business, even though they’ve already collected workers’ compensation benefits. This type of claim can be especially costly and is unique to New York’s legal landscape. Make sure your CGL and umbrella policies offer robust coverage for action over claims, as this will protect you from lawsuits resulting from worksite injuries.

6. Pollution Liability

Many general liability policies exclude coverage for pollution-related incidents, but in the construction industry, pollution exposures are common, whether it’s from the release of hazardous materials or construction debris. You should look for a policy that either includes or offers an endorsement for pollution liability.

7. Umbrella Liability Coverage

An Umbrella Liability policy extends the limits of your general liability coverage, providing an additional layer of protection. This is crucial for contractors who work on larger projects or who face high-risk exposures. If a claim exceeds the limits of your general liability policy, the umbrella policy kicks in to cover the excess, protecting your business from large, potentially devastating claims.

8. Waiver of Subrogation

This clause prevents your insurer from seeking reimbursement from another party after they’ve paid a claim. Many contracts require a waiver of subrogation to be in place, so make sure your policy includes it to avoid potential contract disputes.

9. Errors & Omissions (Professional Liability)

While CGL policies cover bodily injury and property damage, they typically exclude coverage for professional errors and omissions. If your work involves design, consultation, or other professional services, you’ll need Errors & Omissions (E&O) coverage, either as a standalone policy or an endorsement to your general liability.

10. Contractual Liability

In the construction industry, contractors often assume liability for others through contracts. Contractual liability coverage ensures that your insurance policy covers you for the liability you’ve assumed under these contracts.

Navigating the complex world of insurance for New York contractors can be overwhelming. That’s where BGES Group comes in. As one of New York’s construction insurance specialists, BGES Group has the expertise to help you secure the right policies for your business, ensuring that you’re fully covered for the unique risks you face in the construction industry.

If you’re a New York contractor, you know how critical workers’ compensation insurance is to your business. But finding the right policy—at the right price—can be a real challenge. Too often, contractors face issues like sky-high premiums, policy cancellations, and unresponsive brokers. If this sounds familiar, it may be time to make a change.

At BGES Group, we specialize in helping contractors like you get the workers’ compensation coverage they need, without all the headaches. Here are 10 common problems we can help you solve:

1. Overpriced Premiums

Feeling like you’re paying too much for your workers’ compensation insurance? We can help you find competitive pricing that makes sense for your business, helping you save money while still getting the coverage you need.

2. Cancelled Due to Losses

If your policy was cancelled due to past claims or losses, don’t worry. BGES Group has access to special programs that can help get you insured, even if your loss history isn’t perfect.

3. Tired of Annual Audits?

Sick of annual audits that require endless documents? We understand that audits can be a huge hassle. We help you prepare for and simplify the audit process, so you’re not buried in paperwork year after year.

4. Misclassified Payrolls

One common issue contractors face is having their payrolls misclassified, which can drive up premiums. We make sure your payrolls are classified correctly, so you’re not overpaying for coverage you don’t need.

5. Can’t Get Your Broker on the Phone?

If you can’t get your broker on the phone when you need to, that’s a major red flag. At BGES Group, you’ll have direct access to us whenever you need help. We pick up the phone when you call and respond right away.

6. Waiting for Certificates?

Does it take hours, or even days, to get insurance certificates from your broker? We know that delays can hurt your business. At BGES Group, we provide certificates in minutes, so you can keep your projects moving forward.

7. Out-of-State Work Not Covered?

Doing work outside of New York, but finding out too late that your policy doesn’t cover it? BGES Group can help you get a workers’ compensation policy that covers your operations across state lines, ensuring you’re protected no matter where you work.

8. Exorbitant Broker Fees

Is your broker charging you exorbitant policy or service fees? We believe in fair pricing and transparency. At BGES Group, you’ll never be hit with surprise fees, and we work to keep costs reasonable.

9. Complex Policy Language

If you’re confused by all the fine print in your workers’ compensation policy, we can help. We’ll break down your policy in plain English, making sure you understand exactly what you’re paying for and what’s covered.

10. Needing a Broker Who Understands Your Industry

New York contractors, this year’s liability insurance market is tougher than ever, and if you’re not careful, it could cost you big. Whether you’re a general contractor, subcontractor, or involved in a niche area of construction, protecting your business with the right insurance is critical. But with the way things are going, you need to think twice before sticking with your current provider—especially without getting a second opinion.

Here’s why this year, you should consider getting a liability insurance quote from BGES Group.

The Insurance Market Is in Turmoil

This year, the liability insurance marketplace for New York contractors is more unstable than ever. Industry giants like Berkshire Hathaway, State Farm, and Travelers have all made drastic changes. Some have placed moratoriums on writing new business, meaning they’re not accepting new policies from contractors. Worse, we’re still uncertain about what they’re planning with their renewal pricing. Even if you’ve been a loyal customer, you could be in for a shock when it’s time to renew.

These companies are hedging their bets, and it’s contractors like you who may end up paying the price.

Brokers Are Overwhelmed—Is Your Renewal Being Handled Properly?

In addition to the chaos in the insurance marketplace, many brokers are overburdened with work. The people managing your account are often so swamped with tasks that they may not be able to properly market your renewal policies. This means they could miss opportunities to secure better pricing or coverage for you.

At BGES Group, we’ve seen it happen too often. Brokers who are overloaded simply can’t give your renewal the attention it deserves, and in this environment, that could mean thousands of extra dollars out of your pocket.

Why You Need a Second Opinion from BGES Group

Here at BGES Group, we specialize in New York construction insurance. Unlike the large, impersonal firms, we offer a true boutique service that’s focused on you. We’re a mom-and-pop operation, which means when you call us, you get us—directly. No layers of gatekeepers. No delays.

We understand the construction industry and the unique challenges contractors face because we’ve been in the trenches. Not only are we knowledgeable about insurance, but we’re also street-smart and tough—traits you don’t often see with account executives at large insurance agencies these days.

When you ask us to do something, we do it right away. We believe in personalized service, and we fight for the best possible outcomes for our clients. That’s what sets us apart.

Get Competitive Quotes Before It’s Too Late

Even if you’re happy with your current insurance provider, it’s always wise to get a second opinion, especially in a year like this. Your incumbent carrier could impose a drastic increase, and you need to be prepared. BGES Group offers a thorough review of your current coverage, ensuring you’re getting the right protection at the right price. If we find areas where you can improve, we’ll give you competitive quotes that reflect the real-world needs of your business.

Don’t leave your future to chance. Protect your business and back yourself up with a second opinion liability quote from BGES Group.

Remember the last time you called someone and it felt like your phone call was lost in space? Yeah, that doesn’t happen with BGES Group. When you call, they actually pick up the phone. It’s like discovering a unicorn in the insurance world.

    4.       Service So Good, You’ll Brag About It

BGES Group doesn’t just provide great insurance—they provide amazing service. If you need something, they’re on it. Fast. No endless waiting, no runaround, just people who know their stuff and get things done.

    5.       They’re Like a Mom-and-Pop Boutique

    6.       No Surprises, Just Solid Support

Let’s be real: construction already has enough surprises (like the weather). With BGES Group, you don’t have to worry about unexpected issues with your insurance. They’ll let you know exactly what’s going on, so you can focus on building, not battling insurance woes.

    7.       Great People, Greater Results

At BGES Group, you’re not just another client; you’re a valued partner. They work hard to get you the best results, and they do it with a smile. They’re the type of people you could grab a coffee with—if you weren’t so busy building New York, that is.

Let’s face it, New York construction isn’t always the smoothest ride, but what if I told you there are ways for contractors like you to hit the big time? Here are 10 foolproof (or not so foolproof) ways to strike it rich in the Empire State.

1. Marry a Rich Socialite

Hey, it worked for some, right? Rub elbows at the hottest Manhattan cocktail parties, lock eyes across the room with someone named Bitsy or Muffy, and before you know it, you’re sipping champagne on a yacht named “Inheritance.”

2. Have Your Stock Go Up 5000%

Why sweat through another project when you can ride the stock market roller coaster? Imagine investing in a small tech stock today and watching it skyrocket 5000% next week. Risky? Sure. But if it pays off, you’ll never touch a hammer again.

3. Use BGES Group as Your Construction Insurance Specialists

You know what’s a more realistic way to save big bucks and grow your business? Partner with BGES Group for your construction insurance needs. We’ll get you quality coverage at competitive rates. No yachts required (though we won’t stop you from buying one).

Coverages Offered:

A. Property

B. General Liability

C. Commercial Umbrella Liability

D. Business Auto

E. Workers’ Compensation

F. NYS Disability

G. Bid & Performance Bonds

H. Group Health

4. Discover Oil While Digging a Foundation

You’re digging a foundation for a new high-rise, and bam! Oil starts gushing. Stranger things have happened, right? Just be sure to finish the project before you head off to Texas in a cowboy hat.

5. Land a Celebrity Client

If you’re remodeling Taylor Swift’s penthouse, chances are you’re in for a payday. Bonus points if she writes a song about you after.

6. Flip a Warehouse in Brooklyn

You bought that warehouse in Bushwick for $200k back in the day, and now it’s worth $5 million. Time to trade in those work boots for designer loafers.

7. Win the Lottery (Hey, Someone Has To!)

You can’t win if you don’t play! Whether it’s Mega Millions or a scratch-off at the local bodega, this could be your golden ticket.

8. End Up in a Rich Aunt or Uncle’s Will

Family feuds aside, having that distant rich aunt or uncle who’s fond of you could pay off big time. Make sure you stay on their good side. Weekly calls wouldn’t hurt either.

9. Sell Your Contracting Business for a Fortune

Build your business to the point where a massive construction conglomerate just can’t resist. Cash out, then spend your days lounging in the Hamptons.

10. Go Viral for Your Construction TikTok

Everyone loves a good “before and after” video. Create some entertaining (or absurd) content, go viral, and let those sponsorship deals roll in. Suddenly, you’re a contractor by day and social media influencer by night.

Ready for Real Wealth? Start with BGES Group

While we can’t promise yachts or viral fame, we can promise top-notch construction insurance at competitive rates. Don’t leave your business’s financial future to chance—protect it with the right coverage.

With New York’s strict labor laws (like Labor Laws 240 and 241), contractors wish for peace of mind. They need insurance coverage that protects them from legal liability and potential lawsuits. This security allows them to focus on their work.

    5.       A Partner Who Understands Their Work

In their love life, contractors wish for a supportive relationship where their partner encourages their business goals. They want someone who cheers them on during tough times and celebrates their successes.

    10.     Tailored Insurance Solutions

Contractors wish for insurance policies that are specifically tailored to their business. They want solutions that fit their needs, whether they are handling a small residential job or a large commercial project. Working with a broker who knows their unique challenges makes all the difference.

In the hit Netflix series Nobody Wants This, Rabbi Jonah’s wit and wisdom often steal the show. If he were to sit down with a group of New York contractors, offering them his unsolicited advice, he would no doubt have a lot to say about how they should handle their workers’ compensation insurance. Of course, he would insist they turn to none other than Gary Wallach and BGES Group. Here are 10 reasons Rabbi Jonah might give, with his trademark humor:

1. “Your business is like a big family, and family means never letting Cousin Avi handle your insurance.”

Why leave something as important as workers’ compensation to a distant relative when you could let Gary Wallach, the insurance maven, take care of it?

2. “Do you really want to spend Shabbat worrying about your premiums?”

Trust BGES Group, and you’ll sleep soundly knowing Gary has handled your workers’ comp insurance like a true mensch.

3. “BGES Group is like a Kiddush, they bring everyone together – contractors, workers, even the underwriters.”

If anyone can unite people from different sides of the business and get you the right coverage, it’s Gary and his team.

4. “Gary Wallach knows more about insurance than your bubbie knows about brisket!”

And you wouldn’t trust just anyone with your bubbie’s brisket recipe, would you?

5. “Workers’ comp is like trying to build a sukkah in a hurricane – you need real help.”

Don’t try and go it alone. You need a pro like BGES Group to keep your business from blowing away in the storm of legal requirements.

6. “If you think Yom Kippur is stressful, wait until you try getting a workers’ comp claim settled without the right coverage.”

Do yourself a favor. Let Gary handle the stress, so you can focus on more important things – like breaking your fast.

7. “BGES Group knows the Talmud of insurance, and Gary Wallach is your rebbe.”

Navigating workers’ compensation insurance can be as complex as interpreting the Talmud. Lucky for you, Gary is ready to explain it all, with patience.

8. “You don’t need a miracle to get good workers’ comp insurance – you just need BGES Group.”

Miracles are for splitting seas and finding parking in Manhattan. Workers’ comp is best left to the professionals at BGES Group.

9. “Gary Wallach has chutzpah – the kind you want in an insurance broker.”

You don’t want someone timid negotiating your insurance. You want someone who will stand up for you, even against the big insurance companies.

10. “Hiring BGES Group is like finding out your contractor didn’t overcharge you – a rare, blessed event!”

Gary Wallach ensures you get fair pricing and great coverage, which is almost as miraculous as finding a contractor who finishes on time.

Let Gary and BGES Group take care of your insurance so you can take care of your business (and enjoy a stress-free Shabbat).

If you’re a contractor in New York, you’ve probably noticed that workers’ compensation rates are climbing higher and higher. Many business owners feel trapped, paying exorbitant premiums year after year, unsure if there’s a way out. But here’s some good news: BGES Group offers a specialized workers’ compensation program that could save you up to 30% on your payroll service, workers’ comp premium and even group health insurance costs—and much more. This program is designed to meet the specific needs of contractors, offering a comprehensive solution that bundles payroll services, workers’ compensation insurance, and even group health insurance.

Imagine slashing your workers’ comp costs while simplifying your operations. Let’s dive into how this program can transform your business and save you thousands.

A Holistic Solution: Workers’ Compensation, Payroll, and Group Health Insurance in One Package

At BGES Group, we understand that managing workers’ compensation insurance is just one piece of the puzzle. That’s why we offer a program that doesn’t stop at offering competitive insurance rates. We bundle workers’ compensation insurance with payroll services and group health insurance to offer a comprehensive, cost-effective solution. By combining these services, you can streamline your administrative processes and reduce the headaches that often come with managing payroll, insurance audits, and employee benefits.

With this program, you could save up to 30% on all costs while also simplifying your payroll and employee benefits processes. This means more time to focus on your business and less time worrying about paperwork, audits, and compliance issues.

Payrolls Properly Classified—No More Surprises at Audit Time

One of the major reasons why many contractors end up paying more than they should for workers’ compensation insurance is misclassified payrolls. Incorrect payroll classification can lead to unexpectedly high premiums and costly audit adjustments.

With BGES Group’s program, you won’t have to worry about that anymore. Program works closely with you to ensure that all your employees are classified correctly, so you won’t be hit with unpleasant surprises down the road. Proper classification can significantly reduce your premiums and make sure you’re not overpaying for coverage.

This attention to detail helps contractors avoid the common pitfalls that come with workers’ comp audits. Our goal is to ensure your payroll is set up the right way from the start, so you can avoid unnecessary expenses and stress.

Simplified Audits—In Some Cases, No Audit Needed

Speaking of audits, how would you like to simplify or even avoid them altogether? One of the biggest headaches for contractors is the annual workers’ comp audit, where insurance carriers review your payroll records and determine if you owe additional premiums based on misclassifications or underreported payroll.

Our program aims to take the stress out of audits. In many cases, your workers’ comp premiums will be based on actual, real-time payroll data, eliminating the need for comprehensive annual audits. This system prevents you from being hit with additional fees or adjustments at the end of the year. With BGES Group’s program, you’ll always know exactly where you stand, without the looming fear of a costly audit hanging over your head.

Leave the Forms and Filings to Us: 941s and NYS-45 Forms Handled

Managing payroll isn’t just about cutting checks—it’s about staying compliant with tax filings and state regulations. If you’re a contractor in New York, you’re familiar with the headache that comes with filing federal 941 forms and New York State NYS-45 forms. These quarterly filings can be complicated and time-consuming, and many contractors end up spending thousands of dollars in accountant fees to make sure everything is done right.

With BGES Group’s program, these filings are handled for you by our payroll service. This means no more time wasted on tax forms, and no more hefty accountant bills. We ensure that your 941s and NYS-45 forms are filed accurately and on time, freeing you up to focus on running your business.

By saving on accountant fees and simplifying your tax obligations, you’ll see how this program delivers value far beyond workers’ compensation savings.

Gain Access to a Human Resource Department

In addition to saving on workers’ comp and simplifying your payroll, BGES Group’s program also provides access to a human resources department to assist with employee-related issues. Whether it’s help with hiring practices, addressing workplace disputes, or managing compliance with labor laws, our program’s HR department is here to support you.

As a contractor, you’ve got enough on your plate without worrying about HR headaches. With BGES Group’s program, you’ll have access to expert guidance and support for any employee issues that come your way. This service helps you maintain a productive, compliant, and motivated workforce, all without the added cost of hiring in-house HR personnel.

Save Money and Simplify Your Operations with BGES Group

If you’re tired of paying too much for workers’ compensation insurance, BGES Group is here to help. Our program offers contractors the chance to cut their costs by up to 30%, all while simplifying payroll, avoiding costly audits, and streamlining HR processes.

Here’s what you’ll get with BGES Group’s program:

        •         Up to 30% savings on payroll service, workers’ compensation and even group health premiums.

        •         Accurate payroll classification to avoid audit surprises.
