In New York State, you can collect unemployment benefits and worker’s compensation benefits, as long as you are less than 100% disabled. If you are less than 100% temporary totally disabled and you are looking for work with your employer within your restrictions and they do not have work available for you within your restrictions, you can apply for unemployment while collecting worker’s compensation payments.
