Loss of Earning Capacity Compensation
Future income reduction when injuries prevent you from earning what you could before
Understanding Loss of Earning Capacity
Loss of earning capacity is different from lost wages. While lost wages cover income you have already missed, loss of earning capacity compensates you for the reduction in your future ability to earn money. If your injuries force you into a lower-paying job, prevent you from advancing in your career, or permanently disable you from working, you may be entitled to substantial compensation for the lifetime of earnings you will never receive.
What This Covers
- Inability to return to your previous job
- Forced career change to lower-paying work
- Reduced work hours due to physical limitations
- Lost promotions and career advancement
- Permanent disability preventing all employment
- Need for job retraining or vocational rehabilitation
