Michigan Governor Narrows COVID-19 Leave Protections for Employees

Publication

9.10.20

Governor Gretchen Whitmer issued an Executive Order that limits the availability of job-protected leave only to those employees who pose a “particular risk of infecting others with COVID-19.” In an article published by SHRM, Stephen Gee describes that the Governor’s Executive Order is not retroactive in nature and is still more protective than CDC guidelines with regard to when an employee may return to work. Stephen explains what Michigan employers need to know about the Executive Order and what they can and cannot do to return employees to work.
