What Is Work Comp Campus in Minnesota?
Work Comp Campus is the Department of Labor and Industry's online claim file. How to register, why you need a WID number, and what you can see or file there.
Work Comp Campus is the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry electronic claim system. Since late 2020, most workers' compensation filings that used to travel on paper go through it: First Reports of Injury, NOIDs, rehabilitation forms, dispute requests, and the documents the judge will later read.
It is not the insurer's website. The adjuster's portal and Campus are different files. Campus is the state's copy.
How to get in
Register on the Campus site. You will need an email address and your WID number (Workers' Identification Number). DLI assigns the WID when the First Report of Injury is filed. It is the number that appears on state-generated papers about your claim.
If you do not have a WID, call DLI and ask. Give them your name, date of injury, and employer. Do not wait for the insurer to mail one.
The insurer's claim number is a different identifier. Campus will not find you with that number alone.
What you can see
Once your account is linked to the claim, the file usually includes:
- the First Report of Injury,
- notices the insurer filed (including a NOID),
- rehabilitation forms,
- dispute filings, including a Claim Petition if one exists.
Download PDFs. Do not assume the adjuster sent you every page that is already in Campus.
What you can file
Unrepresented workers can file some requests in Campus: objections, requests for assistance, and other dispute papers the form list covers. Represented workers' attorneys file there as a matter of course.
If login fails and a deadline is running (a NOID window is the common one), call DLI or the ombudsman the same day. A broken password is not an extension.
What Campus does not do
Campus does not decide your claim. It stores the papers. It also does not replace notice to your employer. Reporting the injury is still Minn. Stat. § 176.141; see how long you have to report.
