Lost Wages or Earnings - Michigan No Fault Benefits:
Work loss benefits are payable to an injured person for three years following an accident, covering 85% of the gross lost wages. The maximum benefit is raised each year.The No Fault insurance company will reimburse wage loss up to the monthly statutory maximum for 3 years after the accident. For 2009, the monthly maximum is $4878.00. A doctor's disability slip and proof that you were earning a wage are required. If you were still looking for work or were temporarily unemployed at the time of an accident, you will still be able to receive benefits. If your earnings exceed the statutory maximum, then additional wages lost can usually be collected from the negligent driver's automobile insurer.
