Local church pastors and trustees are reminded to consider Worker’s Compensation coverage as local church property and liability insurance needs are evaluated. Churches are required by NC law to have coverage if there are three or more regular employees (full or part-time). The NC Conference recommends coverage for all churches regardless of the number of employees. The Conference does not maintain a group policy for this as each church is an individual salary-paying unit. Your health insurance provider will not pay medical claims resulting from a work injury and the church and employee will be responsible. Please see a memo on this topic on the Treasurer’s Office Training Materials website for more information. Group discounts may be available for NC Conference churches for worker’s compensation coverage through the NCC PACT insurance program. Please contact the Treasurer’s Office at nccpact@nccumc.org to request a quote for your church on this important coverage.
