Workers' comp time-loss pays at the same rate as a short-term disability policy. This is supposed to take into account that they don't deduct taxes from the payment and you supposedly have fewer expenses since you don't have to drive to work, wash your work clothes or pay for lunch anymore. I, as someone who manages workers' comp claims for my company, prefer to have the time-loss payments low as an incentive to not milk the system.
