Get your business covered by Zenployers in the land of 10,000 lakes
Minnesota Workers' Compensation
Minnesota is known for its friendly people and beautiful and numerous lakes. However, the land of 10,000 lakes offers much more, and is known for its many small businesses and corporate headquarters.
Minnesota’s business industry really shined in recent years. The state is known for being the friendliest of all 50 states, over 11,000 lakes, and many campgrounds. Major Minnesota industries include agriculture, manufacturing, mining, energy production, and the service industry. Target, Best Buy, 3M, Mayo Clinic, Cargill, and Buffalo Wild Wings are all headquartered in Minnesota.
Small businesses in Minnesota employ more than 1.2 million people. This accounts for 48% of the state’s private work force, and with over 62,500 workplace injuries and 75 fatalities across all industries in 2018, small businesses need to make sure they have workers’ compensation insurance coverage.
Large businesses in Minnesota also self-insure and set aside funds that are dedicated to workers’ comp. Zenployers is a perfect match for this as well.
