Implementing Section 125 of the General Municipal Law
1. General Contractors -- Business Owners and Certain Homeowners
For businesses and certain homeowners listed as the general contractors on building permits, proof that they are in

above forms.

For homeowners of a 1, 2, 3 or 4 Family, Owner-occupied Residence, proof of their exemption from the mandatory coverage
provisions of the Workers’ Compensation Law when applying for a building permit is to file Form BP-1.

Form BP-1 shall be filed if the homeowner of a 1, 2, 3 or 4 Family, Owner-occupied Residence is listed as the general
contractor on the building permit, and the homeowner:
◊
is performing all the work for which the building permit was issued him/herself,
◊

(aggregate hours for all paid individuals on the jobsite) for the work for which the building permit was issued.
♦
If the homeowner of a 1, 2, 3 or 4 Family, Owner-occupied Residence is hiring or paying individuals a total of 40
hours or MORE in any week (aggregate hours for all paid individuals on the jobsite) for the work for which the
