What Is Temporary Total Disability (TTD)?
Temporary Total Disability benefits are available to workers who cannot perform any job duties due to a workplace injury. These benefits provide financial assistance equal to 66 2/3% of the injured worker’s average weekly wage to address the severe economic impact of total disability.
A mandatory 7-day waiting period is required, but if the disability extends beyond 21 days, the initial waiting period is retroactively covered.
Qualifying For TTD Benefits
To receive the TTD benefits you deserve, workers must meet specific eligibility criteria:
- A doctor authorized by the employer’s workers’ compensation insurer must certify that the worker cannot perform any work duties.
- The claim must be filed within the two-year statute of limitations from the date of injury.
- Benefits are available for a maximum duration of 104 weeks, depending on the severity of the injury.
Meeting these requirements can be complex, making representation by a skilled lawyer crucial to obtaining benefits.
