If I'm receiving unemployment benefits, how will that affect my workers' comp claim?

Any unemployment benefits received while you are entitled to either TTD or TPD benefits will be deducted from your workers' comp benefits (note that a credit cannot be taken by the Employer against any PPD benefits).  In other words, injured workers are not entitled to a "windfall" or a double award of weekly benefits.

For example, if your compensation rate is $400.00 per week, and you are also receiving $300.00 per week in unemployment benefits, you would only be entitled to receive $100.00 per week in workers' comp benefits.
