9 Temporary Income Benefits TIBS are due when an employee is medically unable to work due to a compensable on the job injury. The first 7 calendar days of lost time is a mandatory waiting period. An employee is NOT paid under Workers Compensation for these days unless they miss 14 or more calendar days of time. Workers Compensation pays: 70% of Average Weekly Wage for employees who make $10.00 or more an hour 75% of Average Weekly Wage for employees who make less than $8.50 an hour.
