How Much Your Body Parts Are Worth In Workers’ Compensation #Infographic

Published by Web Desk Saturday, March 28, 2020

Employees who are permanently injured or lose a limb due to workplace accidents or hazards are typically compensated by their employer for the harm done to their body and future lost wages. Unfortunately, benefits vary wildly from state to state. Congress permits each state to determine workers’ compensation benefits with no minimums set by the federal government. In the Unite States, the average maximum compensation for an arm is $169,878.

However, if you work in Alabama, you may only be given a maximum payout of $48,840 if you lose an arm. Nevada offers the most at $859,634. Shockingly, the US average compensation for a lost arm is only $169,878. Another major variance is the compensation for losing a leg. The United States average is $153,211. Nevada is the most generous once again, offering $457,418 for a lost leg, which is a stark contrast to Alabama’s mere $44,000.
