Social Security and Workers’ Compensation Interaction
A reader asks how workers’ compensation and Social Security disability interact when benefits run concurrently. Rules vary by state and plan: some reduce only the workers’ payout, some reduce Social Security, and total benefits may not exceed 80 percent of pre illness earnings. Examples illustrate how combined benefits affect Social Security. The column also covers Medicare eligibility without employer disclosure, taxability of pensions, and whether a non Social Security teacher can claim Social Security at 65.
