How This Calculator Works

Calculation methodology and assumptions

This calculator estimates Indiana's Temporary Total Disability (TTD) workers' compensation benefit -- the ongoing wage-replacement payment made while you are completely unable to work due to a job injury -- using 66 2/3% (two-thirds) of your average weekly wage, per IC 22-3-3-8 / IC 22-3-3-22. Indiana is structured differently from every other state on this site: instead of capping the RESULTING benefit, IC 22-3-3-22(a) clamps the "average weekly wages" figure used in the calculation itself to a fixed statutory range the General Assembly has already legislated through mid-2026 (not an annually-republished agency figure), then applies the standard 66 2/3% rate under IC 22-3-3-8 to that clamped figure -- and separately guarantees the result never exceeds your own actual wage. Your actual benefit is also subject to a fixed statutory maximum of $877.33/week (66 2/3% of the $1,316 maximum "average weekly wages" figure IC 22-3-3-22(a)(8) sets by name for injuries on/after July 1, 2026, part of a fixed step schedule the General Assembly has already legislated -- applied directly below), on the high end, and a fixed statutory minimum of $50.00/week (66 2/3% of IC 22-3-3-22(a)'s $75 minimum "average weekly wages" figure), unless your actual average weekly wage is itself below $50 -- IC 22-3-3-22(a) provides that compensation may never exceed your own actual wage, so in that case you receive 100% of your real wage instead (applied directly below), on the low end -- this calculator applies both directly, since both are fixed dollar figures written into the statute itself, and you should confirm the current published cap/floor with Indiana's workers' compensation agency before relying on this estimate for a specific dollar figure.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is a workers' comp TTD benefit calculated in Indiana?

Indiana pays 66 2/3% (two-thirds) of your average weekly wage while you are temporarily and totally unable to work due to a job-related injury or illness, per IC 22-3-3-8 / IC 22-3-3-22.

Is there a maximum or minimum weekly benefit?

Yes. The benefit is capped at a fixed statutory maximum of $877.33/week (66 2/3% of the $1,316 maximum "average weekly wages" figure IC 22-3-3-22(a)(8) sets by name for injuries on/after July 1, 2026, part of a fixed step schedule the General Assembly has already legislated -- applied directly below), and floored at a fixed statutory minimum of $50.00/week (66 2/3% of IC 22-3-3-22(a)'s $75 minimum "average weekly wages" figure), unless your actual average weekly wage is itself below $50 -- IC 22-3-3-22(a) provides that compensation may never exceed your own actual wage, so in that case you receive 100% of your real wage instead (applied directly below). This calculator applies both figures directly, since Indiana's legislature writes fixed dollar amounts directly into the statute itself rather than delegating them to an annually-adjusted agency figure.

Does this calculator estimate my lump-sum settlement amount?

No. This tool estimates only your ongoing weekly wage-replacement (TTD) benefit while you remain temporarily and totally disabled. A lump-sum workers' comp settlement additionally depends on your permanent impairment rating, future medical costs, vocational/return-to-work factors, and case-specific negotiation between you (or your attorney) and the insurer -- none of which a wage-replacement calculator can responsibly estimate.

What counts as my "average weekly wage" in Indiana?

Most states calculate this from your gross wages (before taxes) over a set look-back period before your injury -- commonly 13 weeks, though some states use up to a full year for seasonal or part-year workers. Check with your state's workers' comp agency for the exact look-back period that applies to your claim.

Are workers' comp benefits taxable?

No. Workers' compensation benefits paid under a workers' comp act are generally fully exempt from federal and state income tax, per IRC §104(a)(1) -- unlike a lawsuit settlement for lost wages, which is typically taxable. See our Legal Settlement Tax Calculator if you're dealing with a separate personal injury lawsuit rather than a standard workers' comp claim.
