Will you be fined by the state of Texas for not having workers comp?

Texas is the only voluntary Comp state. But they remain liable for the workers' injuries and should opt out correctly - according to the state rules, filing their decision with the state and posting the proper notice to employees. You can't just decide to go bare. Employers in all states need to realize they remain liable if they don't have coverage, and that their employees and their employees' families can sue them. In many states, like Texas for example, you're even responsible for your subcontractors who don't have coverage.

Check the state laws in where the sole proprietor is being operated. It changes from state to state. For example in California requires workers' compensation if there is one employee. But if it is a sole owner with no employees then the insurance is optional. In Alabama and Florida if you have four employees including the owner, then workers' compensation is a must. In Texas workers' compensation is not required at all, but the state does require the employer to post a sign stating that workers' compensation will not be provided.

If my company uses contract labor and gives them a 1099 am I required to pay workman's comp insurance on them?
It depends on your state. For example, Texas is the only voluntary state for Workers' Comp. BUT, it, like all states, says that if you don't carry the coverage you remain liable for your workers AND you lose your sole remedy (which means people can sue your company for workers' injuries - not only the worker, but his spouse, kids...) Not all states say you have to cover 1099 workers, but many do - including the voluntary Comp state of Texas - if your subcontractors don't have coverage (or remain liable.)
