What benefits is a Provo injured worker entitled to?

Under Utah Code Title 34A, Chapter 2, an injured worker may be entitled to four categories of benefits, depending on the case:

1. Lost Wage Benefits (TTD / TPD)

If your injury keeps you out of work, Utah pays Temporary Total Disability (TTD) at 66.67% of your Average Weekly Wage, capped at the State Average Weekly Wage. If you return to work but earn less because of restrictions, you may qualify for Temporary Partial Disability (TPD).

2. Permanent Partial Disability (PPD)

Once your condition stabilizes, your treating physician assigns an impairment rating. Utah PPD is calculated as: impairment % × 312 weeks × benefit rate. Most Provo cases settle here. The CVR calculator computes this automatically.

3. Medical Benefits

Workers' compensation pays 100% of authorized medical care related to the injury — no deductibles, no copays. This includes doctor visits, surgery, physical therapy, prescriptions, and prosthetics. You also get reimbursed for medical mileage.

4. Permanent Total Disability (PTD)

If you cannot return to any work due to the injury, you may qualify for PTD — weekly benefits paid for life. Utah law also has statutory PTD for permanent loss of both hands, both eyes, both legs, or any combination thereof.

Workers' Comp Questions from Provo Workers

Three things, in order: (1) Get medical care immediately — tell the doctor it happened at work. (2) Report the injury to your employer in writing within 180 days. (3) Use our free calculator to estimate what your case may be worth before you accept any settlement offer from the insurance company.

Workers' compensation claims in Utah are filed with the Utah Labor Commission, Industrial Accidents Division. The Commission is headquartered in Salt Lake City but handles cases for all of Utah, including Provo, Orem, and the surrounding communities. You can file by mail or online through their portal.

Not always. Simple cases with no impairment rating and a cooperative employer often settle without an attorney. But if your claim is denied, the insurer offers a low settlement, or you have a serious impairment, an attorney typically recovers significantly more. Most Utah workers' comp attorneys work on contingency — no fee unless you win, capped at 25% by Utah law.

There is no "average" because every case is different — it depends on your wages, the severity of the injury, the impairment rating, and how long you were out of work. Use the CVR calculator to get a Utah-specific estimate based on your actual numbers, not a generic average.

No. Utah Code 34A-2-114 makes retaliation for filing a workers' comp claim illegal. If your employer fires, demotes, or harasses you for filing, you may have an additional retaliation case beyond the workers' comp claim itself.

Simple cases settle in 3–6 months. Cases with a permanent partial disability rating typically take 6–12 months. PTD claims or denied cases that go to a formal hearing can take 12–24 months. The CVR Quick Calculator gives you the numbers immediately so you can plan.
