Virginia Workers' Compensation
Virginia is known for its historical significance in American history, such as being home to the first of the thirteen colonies. However, the Old Dominion state has much to offer today with its many small businesses and corporate headquarters.
Virginia’s business industry has been on the rise for many years. The state is known for being the birthplace of America, home to the famous Jamestown, the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains, and it’s very nice and friendly beaches. Major industries in Virginia include agriculture, aerospace, mining, technology, and the military. Dollar Tree, DXC Technology, Capital One, and Smithfield Foods are all headquartered in Virginia.
Small businesses in Virginia employ more than 1.5 million people. This accounts for 47% of the state’s private workforce, and with 82,500 workplace injuries and 157 fatalities across all industries in 2018, small businesses need to make sure they have workers compensation insurance coverage.
Large businesses in Virginia also self-insure and set aside funds that are dedicated to workers’ comp. Zenployers is a perfect match for this as well.
