If a 1099 contractor is injured on the job, they typically do not have access to workers' compensation benefits, as these are generally reserved for W-2 employees. Instead, the contractor is responsible for their own medical expenses and may need to rely on their own health insurance or seek compensation from the client if negligence is involved. It's essential for contractors to have their own liability insurance to cover such situations. Ultimately, the specifics can vary depending on the contract terms and local laws.
