A self-insurers representatives bond creates a legal contract between these three parties:

- Obligee: The New York Workers’ Compensation Board requiring the bond
- Surety: The provider issuing the bond
This holds you financially responsible for upholding Section 50 of the Workers’ Compensation Law of New York and all other applicable laws.
