Workers' Comp weekly benefit 2025 - FAQ Questions
How is my 2025 workers' comp weekly benefit calculated?
Multiply your average weekly wage by your state’s percentage (often 66%-75%). Subtract payroll taxes like Social Security. Most states cap payments at maximum rates.
What’s the 2025 maximum workers’ comp payment?
New York’s maximum is $1,222.42 weekly starting July 2025. Other states set caps using local wage data. Alaska updates rates yearly via official bulletins.
Do dependents increase workers’ comp benefits?
Yes. Spouses and children often add $25-$40 weekly. Rhode Island pays dependency allowances for total disability claims. Include dependents when using calculators.
How does marital status affect my payment?
Marital status changes tax withholdings in calculations. Single workers often keep more of their benefit than married ones. Always update marital status in benefit tools.
What counts as gross weekly wage?
Gross wage includes overtime and bonuses. For seasonal work, divide annual pay by 52 weeks. Second-job income may also apply in some states.
How are partial disability benefits paid?
Partial benefits cover earnings lost after returning light-duty. Payments equal 50%-80% of wage difference. Georgia limits partial benefits to 350 weeks.
Can I claim workers’ comp for multiple jobs?
Yes. Report all wages from concurrent jobs. Calculators combine earnings to determine your average weekly wage. Provide pay stubs from every employer.
How long do temporary total disability (TTD) benefits last?
TTD payments typically stop after 400 weeks. Catastrophic injuries (e.g., amputations) qualify for lifetime benefits in states like Georgia.
What’s spendable weekly wage?
Spendable wage is gross pay minus taxes. Workers’ comp uses this to set your rate. Rhode Island bases payments on 75% of spendable wages.
Where’s the official 2025 benefit calculator?
Alaska and New York provide free online tools. Enter injury dates, wages, and dependents. Double-check inputs against recent tax law changes.
