Entitlement To Temporary Partial Disability Benefits Under Oklahoma Workers’ Compensation Law

When an injured worker, only because of temporary work restrictions placed upon him or her by his or her authorized treating physician, is or becomes temporarily unable to perform the full range of duties of his or her regular job, but can perform alternative restricted work offered to him or her by his or her employer, he or she will become eligible or entitled to Temporary Partial Disability Disability Benefits (TPD) under Oklahoma Workers’ Compensation law. Title 85A § 45.B.1.

An injured worker, otherwise entitled to Temporary Partial Disability Benefits (TPD) under Oklahoma Workers’ Compensation law, will be paid a weekly TPD compensation check computed at seventy percent (70%) of the difference between such injured workers’ average weekly wage (or ‘AWW’-discussed elsewhere on this site) before his or her injury and his or her average weekly wage for performing alternative work offered to him or her after the injury.  However-Temporary Partial Disability is only paid if the injured worker’s average weekly wage for performing this alternative work is less than his temporary total disability, or ‘TTD’ rate. Title 85A § 45.B.1.

Duration Of Temporary Partial Disability Benefits Under Oklahoma Workers’ Compensation Law

Under Oklahoma law an injured worker’s Temporary Partial Disability (TPD) benefit or check will not extend beyond one-year, or fifty-two (52) weeks.  Additionally, if an injured worker refuses to perform alternative work within his or her restrictions offered to him or her by his or her employer, he or she will not be entitled to a Temporary Partial Disability Benefit check. Title 85A § 45.B.3

Oklahoma Temporary Partial Disability Benefits Not Subject To Attachment, Levy, Execution Or Garnishment Or Other Legal Process

. The right to any claim, benefit or compensation shall not be released or commuted except as provided by the Administrative Workers’ Compensation Act and, except for child support liens, is not assignable and is not subject to garnishment, attachment, levy, execution, or any other legal process. Monetary compensation to dependents of a deceased employee shall not constitute assets of the estate of the deceased employee and shall be payable to and for the benefit of the dependents alone. Any amount withheld under the provisions of this section shall be treated as if it were paid to the employee as workers’ compensation and paid by the employee to the person or agency to whom the obligation is payable.

  1. A lien against workers’ compensation benefits is authorized for the purpose of enforcing a judgment for child support. Child support liens filed in accordance with Section 135 of Title 43 of the Oklahoma Statutes are specifically authorized and shall be paid in accordance with such statute without any order of the Commission.
  2. Additionally, all income assignments or wage assignments for child support issued pursuant to Section 1170 of Title 12 of the Oklahoma Statutes or Section 237.7 of Title 56 of the Oklahoma Statutes are specifically authorized and shall be paid in accordance with such statutes without any order of the Commission.
  3. In the event a child support lien is filed in a case before the Commission, an administrative law judge of the Commission shall recognize such lien in any award of monetary benefits and the employer or insurance carrier shall include the name of the person or government agency asserting the lien on any check for temporary total disability, permanent partial disability or permanent and total disability.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this act, where a claim is for mental injury or illness, the employee shall be limited to twenty-six (26) weeks of disability benefits unless it is shown by clear and convincing evidence that benefits should continue for a set period of time, not to exceed a total of fifty-two (52) weeks.

We applied for disability several times without success. We were frustrated and contacted Mr. Ash for help! We cannot begin to tell how helpful Mr. Ash and staff were. We supplied what they asked for and complied with requests and they handled the rest! We wholeheartedly recommend using Mr. Ash for help with difficult social security matters!

Ash law firm was very helpful with any questions we had, they explained everything that was going to happen in great detail so that we would understand, they told us what all we would needed to have meaning paperwork Dr notes Dr films etc. If we got something in the mail we didn't understand all we had to do was call an they would explain it. They were always polite. They went above an beyond to help us. They were always there if something came up always ready available if we needed to talk in person. They always listened to our questions an concerns about the case. They were reasonably priced. They were very hard working . Mr ash was an amazing lawyer as was his staff an I would highly recommend his service to anyone needing a lawyer .

Scott Ash helped me get my SSDI approved. It’s a difficult time to get approved on your own. The staff and Mr Ash were there for me, any and every time I had questions or concerns about my case. I wouldn’t use anyone else. The professionalism they brought and attention to my needs as a client, helped me relax and make it through. I can’t thank them enough. If you need help then you should definitely contact Ash Law in Tulsa. You will be glad you did.

I just had the best experience with Mr. Scott Ash as mydisability attorney! Never having done anything like this,Mr. Ash and his staff made everything very simple, andcomfortable. Of course, with Scott at the helm, I won my case. I've dealt with 3 other attorneys in Tulsa, and none of them treated me with courtesy. Mr. Ash always made me feel at ease, and I was able to drop theanxiety that I came into his office with.If you are interested in hiring someone who has the experience and professionalism to win for you, all the while letting you feel like you are part of his team,Scott Ash is your guy! I wholeheartedly recommendthat you give him a call, and see if you find what I did.

If you're in need of an attorney for help with social security disability or worker's compensation you NEED to call Ash Law! I can't recommend them strongly enough. They're not just good at their job, they genuinely want to help. They didn't just help me, they patiently answered all my questions without talking down to me. Everyone I had any contact with was really nice. I really just can't say enough good things about them especially Scott and Melanie!!

My daughter, Ashley had been denied her disability claim for a couple of years now. Then we hired Ash Law to represent her. They all worked so hard for her! They got important records, that we couldn't get. They fought for my daughter's disability claim. My daughter just WON her disability claim, because of Ash Law! We are so satisfied with absolutely everything, that Ash Law did! I highly recommend them! Thanks again, Laura Jean, and Ashley. 😊

Scott has been my lawyer since 2018. I was unsure of all the laws governing work comp and social security, Scott was very informative and went thru all the laws with me from day one. He kept in touch with me every step of the way, If I ever had a question about anything he or his assistant would get back with me usually the same day. He was never unavailable to me or my questions. In short I would recommend his law firm for any work comp or social security needs you might have. In my case Scott won both of my cases. He and his firm are like family to me. If you ever have any doubts about what your rights are and how to go about getting the process started give them a call they know.
