Workers Comp , Workers Comp Coverage Feb 6, 2026 A measure that would strengthen enforcement of workers compensation insurance requirements for licensure was filed Thursday in the Illinois House. H.B. 5228 would amend state workers comp law to subject corporations, limited-liability companies and partnerships to civil penalties if they don’t maintain required workers compensation coverage as a condition of licensure by a state agency. Under the bill, entities could avoid penalties only by showing clear and convincing evidence they were not operating while their license was active. A separate bill, H.B. 5227, also filed Thursday, deals with entities that sell or transport goods or facilitate or broker transportation. The bill would amend workers comp law to say such entities that contract with a person or entity engaged in any business or enterprise related to providing transportation services are “liable to pay compensation to its own immediate employees in accordance with” state workers comp law.
