About Minnesota Workers’ Compensation Laws

Physical injuries and diseases that result from your job duties or work environment are covered by Minnesota workers’ compensation laws, except for self-inflicted injuries, injuries from attacks by others for reasons not related to employment, or injuries resulting from self-intoxication.

To receive compensation for healthcare, disability, lost wages, and occupational retraining under Minnesota's workers’ compensation laws or “work comp,” you must report your work injuries to your employer as soon as possible after the injury happens. Your employer should promptly file a claim with the insurance carrier of the company so that the workers’ compensation will be paid to you. You are not required to prove that the employer is at fault in order to receive workers’ compensation benefits.

The amount of work comp you receive depends on the severity of your work injuries and the amount of time you are unable to work. At a minimum, all reasonable medical bills in your case will be covered under Minnesota workers’ compensation laws, including chiropractic care and physical therapy sessions.
