Workers compensation is a type of insurance that almost every employer in Michigan is required by law to carry. Your employer pays the cost of workers compensation insurance, which is intended to protect you in the event of a work injury. Your employer must have workers compensation insurance if it has three or more employees at any given time, or has one employee working 35 hours or more per week. If your employer does not have workers compensation insurance, it is individually liable for your work injury and will have possibly committed a misdemeanor.
