Payments from Workers’ Compensation Clause Samples
The 'Payments from Workers’ Compensation' clause defines how compensation or benefits received by an employee through workers’ compensation insurance are handled in relation to other payments or claims. Typically, this clause clarifies whether such payments offset or reduce the employer’s liability for other benefits, such as disability or wage replacement, and may specify procedures for coordinating these payments. Its core function is to prevent double recovery by the employee and to ensure that the employer’s financial responsibility is clearly delineated when workers’ compensation benefits are involved.
Payments from Workers’ Compensation. An employee returning to work on a reduced hours, phased-in, basis pursuant to Clause 18.06 shall continue to be entitled to applicable payments from Workers’ Compensation or short or long-term disability. Where the external funding body continues to pay the full disability benefit during the phased-in return, the University will have no obligation to supplement this payment.
