Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act Coverage Endorsement WC 00 01 09 B provides WC and EL for work on the outer continental shelf. What does this typically involve?

• A. Drilling rigs and platforms
• B. Onshore office work
• C. Retail stores
• D. Airline hangars

Answer: (A)

This endorsement is about extending workers’ compensation and employer’s liability to offshore operations on the outer continental shelf. It specifically covers workers involved in offshore drilling and production activities, which occur on drilling rigs and platforms located offshore. That’s why drilling rigs and platforms are the typical exposures this endorsement addresses. In contrast, onshore office work, retail stores, or airline hangars aren’t offshore operations, so they aren’t the exposures this endorsement is meant to cover.
