This type of disability is expected to improve with time and medical treatment. Temporary disability benefits are designed to replace a portion of the injured worker's lost wages during their recovery period.

Permanent Disability

When an injured worker's condition reaches a point where it's not expected to improve significantly further with medical treatment, they may qualify for permanent disability.
