Michigan Law Enforcement Job Opportunities

As of July 2026, the State of Michigan (SOM) requires all PDF documents posted on SOM websites to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) accessibility standards. To support this requirement and ensure timely processing of job postings, the Commission has updated its submission guidelines.

  • Submission Requirements and Duration

    Submission Requirements

    • All job postings must be submitted as an ADA-compliant PDF.
    • Please allow 2-3 business days for your job posting to appear on the website. 

    Submission Duration

    • To ensure job postings remain current, accurate, and relevant:
    • All job postings must include a closing date.
    • December 31 of the current calendar year (e.g., December 31, 2026) is the latest allowable closing date for any submitted job posting.
    • If a job posting states “Until Filled,” it will remain posted through December 31 of the current calendar year. If the position remains open after that date, an updated posting must be resubmitted for the new calendar year.

    Posting and Recordkeeping

    • It is the agency's responsibility to monitor its job postings and notify the Commission of nay necessary updates or changes. 
    • Agencies are responsible for saving copies of their job postings for the own tracking and recordkeeping purposes. 

    These requirements help maintain an accurate, streamlined, and up-to-date job board while ensuring compliance with SOM accessibility standards. For your convenience, instructions are provided, below, for using Microsoft Word’s Accessibility Checker before converting your document to PDF. Thank you for your continued cooperation and support.
