Major industries in Iowa are agriculture, renewable energy, manufacturing, information and communication technology, and food production. Hy-Vee, Casey’s General Stores, Rockwell Collins, and Fareway Stores all have their headquarters in Iowa.

This accounts for 48% of the state’s private workforce, and with more than 35,900 workplace injuries and 77 fatalities across all industries in 2018, small businesses need to make sure that they have workers’ compensation insurance coverage.
