Minnesota may tackle workers' comp reform

PCI SmartBrief | 08/14/2008

Workers' comp claims fell 35% over the past decade in Minnesota, but the cost of claims rose between 32% and 56%, according to Labor and Industry Commissioner Steve Sviggum. He says reform is needed and that although there is no chaos in the system yet, "we want to make changes before that, before we need radical changes like other states have had to make."
