WC/DB Exemptions

For Contractors /Homeowners

The old form, WC/DB-100, for exemption from workers’ compensation and/or disability benefits insurance was retired from use on December 1, 2008. Instead, Form CE-200, which replaces Form WC/DB-100, must be used for applicants seeking exemptions starting on December 1, 2008.

Form CE-200 reflects a new process for granting exemptions from workers’ compensation and disability benefits insurance coverage requirements. Historically, the WC/DB-100 exemption forms were valid for multiple permits, licenses or contracts where the applicant applied, had to be notarized, and had to be stamped by the NYS Workers’ Compensation Board.
