On or before June 30 of each year, every employer or group of employers participating in a collectively bargained agreement to deliver workers' compensation benefits pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, section 176.1812, shall file a report with the commissioner. The report shall be on a form provided by the commissioner. The report must contain information concerning those employees covered by the collectively bargained workers' compensation program. Groups of employers shall report the aggregate information for all employers in the group.
The reports to be filed shall contain the following data elements for the preceding calendar year:
On or before June 30 of each year, every employer or group of employers and the labor representatives shall submit updated copies of the documents and other evidence required by parts 5229.0010 to 5229.0060, and Minnesota Statutes, section 176.1812. However, for documents and other evidence that are completely unchanged since the previous submission, the parties may instead submit a statement under penalty of perjury that there has been no change since the previous submission in the documents or evidence not being submitted. The commissioner may nonetheless require any party to submit the actual documents or evidence.
If the parties have not submitted the annual data report or annual documents required by parts 5229.0010 to 5229.0060, the commissioner may after notice to the parties and after an opportunity for the parties to respond, initiate a contested case proceeding under Minnesota Statutes, chapter 14, to terminate recognition of a collective bargaining agreement for a workers' compensation program, or take such other steps deemed necessary to secure the parties' compliance with all reporting requirements.
