Workers' compensation benefits are typically calculated based on your average weekly wage (AWW) before the injury. Here are some common components:

Temporary Disability Benefits: Usually a percentage (e.g., two-thirds) of your AWW, subject to state-imposed maximum and minimum limits.

Permanent Disability Benefits: Based on the severity of your permanent impairment, often using a rating system to determine the percentage of disability and corresponding benefit amount.

Medical Benefits: Cover the actual costs of necessary medical treatment related to the work injury.

Death Benefits: Provide financial support to dependents, often calculated based on a percentage of the deceased worker’s wages.
