On September 5, 2018, the Michigan Legislature adopted the Earned Sick Time Act (ESTA) and the Improved Workforce Opportunity Wage Act (IWOWA). These bills introduce statewide paid sick and safe time as well as annual minimum increases, following closely in the footsteps of other states with paid sick and safe time (“PSST”) laws, though with some differences in policy.
