What is the maximum temporary disability rate for an injury in 2010?

• A. $840.00
• B. $916.33
• C. $958.01
• D. $986.69

Answer: (D)

Temporary disability benefits are two-thirds of the worker’s average weekly wage, but there is a yearly cap on the weekly amount. For 2010, the statewide maximum weekly temporary disability rate was $986.69. So the highest TD payment you could owe in that year is $986.69 per week; if two-thirds of the worker’s AWW would exceed this cap, you pay the cap, otherwise you pay two-thirds of the AWW. The other figures aren’t the 2010 cap.
