How does workman's comp work in Michigan?


The State of Michigan does not ordinarily pay workers' compensation benefits. Most employers in Michigan purchase an insurance policy from a private insurance company or they are authorized to be self-insured. If you are injured on the job, report the injury to your employer immediately.
If you're unable to work at all and are entitled to wage-loss benefits, you'll generally receive 80% of your pre-injury wages (based on the after-tax value of the average weekly wages in the 39 highest-paid weeks out of the 52 weeks before you were injured or became ill).
