Older workers and those in more labor-intensive occupations like construction receive additional benefits while younger workers and those in safer office jobs receive less. According to an actuarial consultant for the state, the average worker with a permanent disability claim is slightly older and in a slightly more dangerous job than the example used here, which would produce slightly higher benefits.
In addition, any worker with an impairment rating of 70% or higher, such as those with complete arm or hand amputations, receive a life pension."
