Class Code 9058: Hotel—Restaurant Employees — Workers' Comp Insurance
Covers the food-and-beverage staff of a hotel's restaurant, bar, and banquet operations, split out from the hotel's other departments under a separate code. It mirrors standard restaurant classification but specifically for hotel-operated dining.
- Risk level:
- moderate
What code 9058 covers
Class 9058 applies to a hotel's restaurant, bar, and banquet employees, covering kitchen staff, servers, bartenders, and banquet/event staff working within the hotel's food-and-beverage operation. This code exists alongside 9052, which covers the hotel's other departments, because dining and kitchen work carries a different exposure profile than housekeeping, front desk, or maintenance. The classification applies whether the restaurant is open to the general public or serves primarily hotel guests, and covers room service delivery staff as part of the same food-and-beverage operation. Hotels with a large banquet and catering business tied to convention or event space typically keep that staff under this same restaurant/food-service classification rather than splitting it out further.
Included operations
- Kitchen prep, cooking, and dishwashing for the hotel restaurant
- Wait staff, bartending, and banquet service
- Room service delivery staff
- Event and catering staff for hotel-hosted functions
Assigned elsewhere
- Front desk, housekeeping, and maintenance staff — see code 9052 (Hotel—All Other Employees & Salespersons, Drivers)
- Standalone restaurants not operated by the hotel, evaluated under the applicable restaurant classification — see code 9082
- Standalone bars or nightclubs operating independently of hotel food service — see code 9084
- Golf or club-style recreational dining at a resort's separate club facility — see code 9060 as applicable
Businesses that typically carry 9058
- Full-service hotel restaurants
- Hotel banquet and event catering departments
- Resort dining operations
- Independently owned locations
- Franchise and chain locations
- Multi-location hospitality operators
Common misclassifications
Code 9052
Hotels sometimes leave all staff under one general hotel code instead of properly splitting restaurant/food-service staff out to this classification.
Code 9082
A hotel restaurant that's heavily marketed to the general public can be confused with a standalone restaurant classification, though the hotel-operated version uses this code instead.

Class code 9058 questions
Why does a hotel need two different codes?
Restaurant and kitchen work carries different exposure than housekeeping, front desk, or maintenance, so hotels typically split payroll between this code and 9052 to reflect that.
Does this code cover room service?
Yes, room service delivery staff are part of the hotel's food-and-beverage classification.
What about banquet and event staff?
Banquet, catering, and event staff for hotel-hosted functions are included under this classification.
Is this the same code as a standalone restaurant?
It mirrors standard restaurant work but applies specifically to a restaurant operated as part of a hotel.
