Episode Details

Michigan’s unemployment system is tightening up—starting July 19, claimants must log three weekly work activities instead of one, from job applications to attending fairs, to prove active job-seeking. New rules, passed in 2024, aim to speed re-employment, with penalties for non-compliance. Also: domestic violence leavers now qualify, hardship waivers expanded to four annual requests, and benefits rising to $614 weekly by January 1—big changes for claimants and the state’s workforce strategy.
