New Mexico’s business industry has been on the rise in recent years. The state is known for the Carlsbad Caverns National Park, White Sands National Monument, Bandelier National Monument. Major New Mexico industries include tourism, military, oil & gas. Akal Security, Sandia National Laboratory, Presbyterian, and Ernest Health are all headquartered in New Mexico.
Small businesses in New Mexico employ more than 334,000 people. This accounts for 53% of the state’s private workforce, and with 18,700 workplace injuries and 55 fatalities across all industries in 2019. Small businesses need to make sure they have workers compensation coverage.
Large businesses in New Mexico also self-insure and set aside funds dedicated to workers compensation. Zenployers is a perfect match for this as well.
