Benefit Of Self-Employment Income Slices Both Ways
Source
Weissman v. WCAB (Podiatry Care Center, PC), 878 A.2d 953 (Pa.Comm. 2005)
Analysis
The long-standing procedure of including self-employment earnings when calculating a claimant's entitlement to partial benefits is not proper, except for earnings from the self-employment job above and beyond the income from that position as of the date of injury.
What it Means for You
You may need re-asses how you calculate partial indemnity benefit payments to Claimants who supplement their income (benefits or earnings) with monies from their own business. Self-employment income can no longer be included in the calculation of partial disability benefits. Ask a Cipriani & Werner attorney to review the Statement of Wages to ensure proper calculation.
