§ 123.1. Purpose.
This subchapter interprets the provisions of the act which authorize the offset of workers’ compensation benefits by amounts received in unemployment compensation, Social Security (old age), severance and pension benefits, subsequent to the work-related injury. Offsets shall be dollar-for-dollar and calculated as set forth in § § 123.4—123.11. Offsets in excess of the weekly workers’ compensation rate shall accumulate as a credit toward the future payment of workers’ compensation benefits.
