The work comp expert more businesses trust
Workers’ Comp Essentials by SFM
Workers’ Comp Essentials is a service that allows small businesses to purchase workers’ compensation insurance directly from SFM Mutual Insurance Company.
SFM is the largest workers’ compensation insurer in Minnesota, and the insurer of choice for more than 30,000 employers across the Midwest and beyond. Workers’ comp is all we do, so we know it best. Others may suggest you bundle workers’ comp with the other types of business insurance you need, but because it’s so unique and complex we believe it’s much better handled by the experts.
Trust us to be your work comp expert — the one more small businesses choose.
