If your spouse draws a wage from you or your company, you must include her in any workers' compensation plan. If you both own the business as sole proprietors, neither of you are required to be on a workers' compensation plan.
Can my spouse sue on my workmans comp case?
IF a worker who qualifies for WC benefits is receiving them, then no one can sue the WC carrier or the employer - WC is designed to be the "exclusive remedy" for workplace injuries.
The first thing I would do is contact a workmans comp lawyer. A situation such as yours could be very difficult to handle properly without an experienced professional to assist you.
As each state's criteria for eligibility and amount of workman's comp payable differs, you need to contact your state's office for clarification.

By law, it's optional for sole proprietors. Reality can be different though. In the construction trades most general contractors will require any subs who are sole proprietors to have workmans comp. This is what their insurance companies require. If a sub doesn't have workmans comp the insurance company adds their wages to the gc's bill.

Yes it is a workmans comp if he was scheduled to come in or he had an appointment. Massachusetts Yes it is a workmans comp if he was scheduled to come in or he had an appointment. Massachusetts Answer #2 You better check with workman's comp. I know of a case where a fellow employee fell in the bathroom at work and was denied payments because it was not considered "work related". In this particular case, the company turned it in as workman's comp but it was refused.
