Section 31IAC5-8-5. Occupational disease or injury; adjustment of compensation payments  


Latest version.
  •    In cases of occupational disease or injury suffered in line of duty in which the employee elects to use accumulated vacation, sick leave, personal leave, or overtime prior to the commencement of worker's compensation payments, the amount of leave charged shall be reduced in the ratio of worker's compensation payments to total salary. This applies to the seven (7) day waiting period if it is determined to be compensable. If vacation, sick leave, personal leave, or overtime is used concurrently with worker's compensation payments in order to pay full salary, the amount of leave charged shall be on the basis of the amount paid not covered by the worker's compensation payment.
