Worker’s Disability Compensation. Provisions of the Michigan Worker's Disability Compensation Act shall apply in all accidents or injuries to members in the line of duty.

The City and the Supervisors and Assistants Union shall each pay for their own selected doctor and share equally the cost of the third doctor.
