Workers' compensation insurance does not "follow you" as an individual portable personal asset in the way private health or life insurance might; rather, it is a mandatory, employer-funded statutory system tied strictly to your active employment status. Coverage protects you specifically for injuries or illnesses sustained while performing duties within the scope of your employment. If you change jobs, your active coverage remains with your former employer's policy framework, and your new employer provides separate statutory protection.
