Returning to light duty after an Ohio work injury does not necessarily mean accepting a smaller paycheck. Working wage loss benefits can replace two-thirds of the difference between your pre-injury earnings and what you make while working under medical restrictions, subject to the state maximum. If light duty has reduced your pay, contact Hochman & Plunkett Co., L.P.A. We can document the wage gap and help you apply for the benefits available.
