The Florida Division of Workers' Compensation has a new tool that allows injured employees to estimate their wage replacement benefits when injured on the job. The division said that the new calculators can be used by anyone, are highly interactive, and will assist injured employees in understanding how temporary disability and impairment benefits are determined.

People may access the calculators at http://www.myfloridacfo.com/wc/employee/calculator.html. The calculators also include links to relevant sections in Chapter 440, F.S., and Rule 69L, F.A.C., to further educate injured employees on wage replacement benefits.
