A Legal Question

My CF was telling me about one of her colleagues who cut her foot pretty badly onstage because the pole is coming loose from its moorings. The pole's attachment to the stage is reinforced by heavy duty tape currently. I know that dancers are 1099 contractors in my neck of the woods. Is the club required to carry workman's comp insurance for the dancers? Or is workman's comp only available to actual W2 employees? I'm guessing it's the former. It didn't occur to me to ask this question of my CF. I'm genuinely curious. Thanks.
