Determining Compensation Rates
Your compensation rate is based on the amount of money you were earning at the time of your
accident.
This is usually determined by considering your:
- taxable employment earnings (taxable earnings from second jobs can be considered when setting your compensation rate)
- holiday pay (if it is paid out on a regular basis, like on every pay cheque)
- statutory holidays (if they are part of your regularly scheduled work week)
- overtime pay (if it is worked on a consistent basis)
