Michigan businesses couldn’t be fined for a first-time civil violation of an emergency standard related to COVID-19 under legislation passed by the Senate this week. Under the House bill, the Michigan Occupation and Safety Health Administration(MIOSHA) couldn’t impose the fine, if the employer corrects the violation. Additionally, the plan would require MIOSHA to reimburse civil fines paid for violating executive orders related to COVID-19 that have been struck down by the Michigan Supreme Court. The bill will be sent to Governor Gretchen Whitmer for her consideration.
