Can I be fired for filing a workers' compensation claim after a construction accident in Michigan?

No, under Michigan law, it is illegal for an employer to retaliate against an employee for filing a workers' compensation claim after a construction accident. Employers are prohibited from terminating, demoting, harassing, or otherwise discriminating against employees who exercise their rights to file workers' compensation claims or report workplace injuries.

If you believe that your employer has unlawfully retaliated against you for filing a workers' compensation claim, you may have grounds for a retaliation lawsuit. It's essential to document any retaliatory actions taken by your employer and consult with an experienced workers' compensation attorney to protect your rights and pursue appropriate legal remedies.
