How Long Can You Be On Workers’ Comp?

The length of work­ers’ com­pen­sa­tion ben­e­fits can vary from state to state. This vari­a­tion often depends on the type of work­ers dis­abil­i­ty of the injured work­er. Some of the types of work­ers dis­abil­i­ty are:

  • Tem­po­rary disability
  • Per­ma­nent disability
  • Full or par­tial disability

Some states lim­it the length of time an injured work­er can receive tem­po­rary ben­e­fits. This range can be three to sev­en years. That said, there is not usu­al­ly a lim­it on per­ma­nent dis­abil­i­ty ben­e­fits. How­ev­er, some states do stop week­ly ben­e­fits when employ­ees reach the age of 65.
