I still stick by my answer, risk reduction is a corporate thing. While it may not cover trade employees management types and non-trade staff would still be a risk. Any insurance program (whether a risk management function or full coverage) would work with the employer to take all steps to reduce liability to the company for accidents and liabilities regardless.
While trades may be covered by federal programs, it will still be in the employers' goal to lower its exposure to law suit and reduce worker injuries which cause loss in both money and man hours.
