Wash. Admin. Code § 415-106-275

Current through Register Vol. 25-01, January 1, 2025

Section 415-106-275 - Are disability insurance or workers' compensation payments reportable compensation?

(1) Disability insurance payments are not reportable compensation, whether the payments come directly from your employer or from an insurance company.

(2) Workers' compensation payments are not reportable compensation.

Example:

Susan, an employee on unpaid disability leave, submits her workers' compensation payments to her employer. The employer then issues Susan a check for the same amount through the payroll system. Even though the payment may have the appearance of compensation from the employer, it is not a payment for services provided and is not reportable compensation.

(3) See WAC 415-106-270 for information about service credit and imputed compensation for periods of duty disability.
