What if I employ a First Response Employee and their workers' compensation claim is denied?

Denial of a claim made by a First Response Employee diagnosed with COVID-19 violates the workers’ disability compensation act of 1969, 1969 PA 317, MCL 418.101 to 418.941, and is subject to penalties, unless the denial is based on specific facts demonstrating that the first response employee was not exposed to COVID-19 at work.
