Unemployment Benefits and Workers Compensation
Are you allowed to collect unemployment benefits and workers compensation at the same time?
In this video, Jerry A. Gambino, experienced Buffalo Workers Compensation Attorney explains if you are entitled to collect both unemployment benefits and workers compensation if you’ve been injured at work. If you have questions about your workers compensation case, please contact us to schedule a consultation. We welcome the opportunity to serve you.
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.
