Among the excellent benefits available to MTI members is the additional worker's compensation benefit provided by MTI's various Collective Bargaining Agreements.

Wisconsin Statutes provide a worker's compensation benefit for absence caused by a work-related injury or illness, but such commences on the 4th day of absence and has a maximum weekly financial benefit.

MTI's Contracts provide one's full wage, beginning on day one of an absence caused by a work-related injury or illness, with no financial maximum. Also, under MTI's Contract provision, one's earned sick leave is not consumed by such an absence.
Although MTI is working to preserve this benefit, it is at risk due to Governor Walker's Act 10.
