What is a monopolistic state? Monopolistic states require businesses to purchase workers comp insurance through a state-run fund. There are currently four monopolistic states for workers compensation: Ohio, North Dakota, Washington, and Wyoming.
Monopolistic workers compensation states require employers to provide workers comp insurance coverage for their employees through a state fund rather than a private insurer.

Temporary exposures: 90-Day Rule Ohios workers compensation laws now recognize the extraterritorial coverage of an out-of-state employer for 90 consecutive days. The 90-Day Rule is applicable to all industries, including the construction industry.
Employers headquartered outside of the state with employees working in the state may have the option, under certain circumstances, to seek exemption from the monopolistic system. As of 2024, only four states in the U.S. have monopolistic workers compensation systems: Ohio, North Dakota, Washington, and Wyoming.
