Employers in South Carolina with four or more regular full-time or part-time employees are required to carry Workers' Compensation Insurance.

If a subcontractor doesn't carry Workers' Compensation Insurance, the owner or the principal contractor would be liable for the injuries that happen to the subcontractor's employees.
