Earned Sick Time Act

Demand Action Now!

Michigan manufacturers face a crucial moment. In February 2025, Michigan employers will be subject to a costly, onerous and litigious paid leave mandate thanks to a Michigan Supreme Court decision that will reinstate the Earned Sick Time Act (ESTA) on all manufacturers, regardless of their size. ESTA imposes some of the most far-reaching and stringent paid time off provisions found in any state.

Legislation has been addressed to address implementation issues within the Earned Sick Time Act and time is of the essence for the legislature to act to help Michigan manufacturing employers. Watch the video below to learn more about House Bill 6057 (Representative Graham Filler, R-Duplain Twp.) and contact your legislators today to demand they act on this critically important bill.
