MIOSHA's Budget for FY 2007
October 1, 2006 to September 30, 2007

Presented below is MIOSHA's budget for Fiscal Year 2007 as published in Michigan Public Act 345 of 2006. Even though their budget is $25,846,300, the agency actually doesn't cost Michigan taxpayers a single penny. $12,281,800 is paid to MIOSHA by federal OSHA to partially cover the cost of conducting inspections.

The remainder of the budget comes from fees and taxes on businesses. For example, $7,581,500 comes from the Safety and Education Training Fund which is funded by a portion of the Workers' Compensation Insurance Premiums paid by Michigan businesses. In other words, every time a Michigan business pays their Workers' Comp insurance premium a portion goes to fund MIOSHA.

In addition, MIOSHA actually makes money for the State! Since MIOSHA conducts the inspections and issues the fines, the State of Michigan gets to keep all of the MIOSHA fine money generated. Depending on the year, that ranges between $4,000,000 and $5,000,000+!
