What is Workers’ Comp?
The Iowa Workers’ Compensation law requires most employers to pay wage loss and medical benefits to employees who are injured on the job.
Medical Benefits
In Iowa, your employer must pay for necessary medical treatment for your injuries. These expenses include travel to and from your medical provider.
Disability Benefits
Your weekly compensation benefit may not exceed 80 percent of your net earnings. Your net earnings are calculated by taking your gross earnings minus taxes.
The maximum weekly benefit is $1498 for Permanent Partial Disability.
The maximum weekly benefit is $1628 for Temporary Total Disability, Healing Period, Permanent Total Disability and death benefits.
