Section 23.30.085. Duty of employer to file evidence of compliance.

   (a) An employer subject to this chapter, unless exempted, shall initially file evidence of compliance with the insurance provisions of this chapter with the division, in the form prescribed by the director. The employer shall also give evidence of compliance within 10 days after the termination of the employer's insurance by expiration or cancellation. These requirements do not apply to an employer who has certification from the board of the employer's financial ability to pay compensation directly without insurance.
   (b) If an employer fails, refuses, or neglects to comply with the provision of this section, the employer shall be subject to the penalties provided in AS 23.30.070 for failure to report accidents; but nothing in this section may be construed to affect the rights conferred upon an injured employee or the employee's beneficiaries under this chapter.
