About TBG

In 1997, a group of 52 construction companies got together and decided to do something about the out of control costs of workers’ comp insurance. The plan was simple: join together to create a self-insured workers’ comp fund based on the principle...

If responsible people act responsibly, everyone wins.

Today, that idea has grown to become the #1 self-insured workers' comp fund in Minnesota, exclusive to the construction trades, representing 650 construction companies in Minnesota, and insuring nearly 35,000 Minnesota construction workers. Through TBG, the construction industry has access to affordable, high-quality workers' comp tailored specifically to their needs. They have a partner who fully understands their risks and is committed to helping them lower costs, create safer workplaces and take better care of their workers. Thats how we make workers' comp work.
