Charles “Sandy” Blunt has accepted an offer to become the new executive director/CEO of North Dakota Workforce Safety and Insurance, the group announced. Blunt expects to be on the job no later than May 3.
Prior to accepting this position, Blunt was the chief operations officer and assistant administrator for the Ohio Bureau of Workers Compensation (BWC).
