Enterprise Minnesota’s CEO, Bob Kill, sat down with Natolie and Jim for an in-depth discussion about several of the new HR & Employment laws in Minnesota and the impact they will have on manufacturers.  Among other topics, they talked about the non-compete ban, legalized cannabis, paid sick and safe time, and the new family and medical leave program that is being developed.

FMJ provides support for Enterprise Minnesota’s annual State of Manufacturing process, which includes a survey of Minnesota manufacturers to help reveal the latest trends in key business areas including growth, workforce, supply chain, economic confidence, and more.
