Michigan SB0075 modifies worker's compensation benefits for death resulting from personal injury.

Michigan SB0075 amends worker's compensation laws to adjust benefits for death resulting from personal injury. It sets the minimum weekly benefit for a wholly dependent individual at 50% of the state average weekly wage. If a dependent spouse remarries, compensation payments cease upon payment of the balance owed, up to $500. Partially dependent individuals receive benefits based on their dependency. The bill also outlines provisions for continuing compensation payments for dependents under 21 years old and specifies the division of death benefits among dependents.
