Workers’ compensation is a form of insurance that provides wage replacement and medical benefits to employees if they have been injured while on the job.

You Are Not Alone

Workplace injuries are more common than most people think. Nearly all employers in Michigan are subject to the Workers’ Disability Compensation Act. The law requires that every covered employer must provide some way of assuring that benefits are paid to its workers if they become injured while on the job. There are an estimated 139,064,000 civilian workers in the United States, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Every day, many of these workers suffer injury, disability, and even death from workplace incidents. On average, more than 4,500 United States workers die in a typical year from occupational injuries.

In Michigan, specifically, 139 fatal work injuries were reported in 2011.
