What benefits is a Ogden 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. 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 Ogden Workers

Workers' compensation claims in Weber County are filed with the Utah Labor Commission, Industrial Accidents Division in Salt Lake City. You don't have to travel — you can file by mail, online, or your employer can file on your behalf. The legal deadline to notify your employer is 180 days from the injury date.

Yes. Federal civilian employees at Hill AFB are covered by the Federal Employees' Compensation Act (FECA), not Utah workers' comp. CVR's calculator is designed for Utah state workers' comp. If you're a federal employee, contact the U.S. Department of Labor's Office of Workers' Compensation Programs (OWCP). For Utah-state-covered Hill AFB contractors, our calculator does apply.

Common manufacturing claims in Weber County include (1) lifting and back injuries, (2) repetitive trauma like carpal tunnel and rotator cuff tears, (3) crush injuries from machinery, (4) chemical and noise exposure claims, and (5) slip-and-fall on warehouse floors. All are covered under Utah workers' compensation if reported within 180 days.

You can file directly with the Utah Labor Commission yourself — your employer cannot block you. If the claim is later denied, you can challenge the denial by filing an Application for Hearing with the Labor Commission. Retaliation for filing a claim is illegal under Utah Code 34A-2-114; if your employer punishes you for filing, you may have an additional retaliation case.

Cases with no impairment rating and a cooperative employer often settle without an attorney. For denied claims, low settlement offers, or any PPD/PTD case, talk to an attorney before you sign. Workers' comp attorneys take a fee only if you win, capped at 25% by Utah law.

It depends on the claim. Claims with no permanent impairment tend to close sooner. Claims with an impairment rating stay open until your condition stabilizes and the rating is done. Denied claims that need a formal hearing at the Utah Labor Commission take the longest. The CVR calculator gives you a benefits estimate right away so you can plan financially.
