Effective Date of Coverage
Enhanced Industrial Disability Leave
On the date of injury, the disabled employee shall be compensated for the full amount of time he/she would have worked had the injury not occurred. The disabled employee must, however, serve a three (3) calendar-day waiting period after the date of injury before becoming eligible for Enhanced Industrial Disability Leave benefit payments unless:
- The employee is disabled as a result of an injury growing out of a criminal act of violence against the employee, in which case the employee is eligible for EIDL benefit payments from the first day of disability.
- The employee is hospitalized on the date of injury, in which case the employee is eligible for EIDL benefit payments from the first calendar day following the date of injury.
- The employee is hospitalized later because of the disability, in which case the employee is eligible for EIDL benefit payments from the first day of the three calendar-day waiting period.
- The employee is disabled for more than fourteen (14) calendar days, in which case the employee is eligible for EIDL benefit payments from the first day of the three calendar-day waiting period.
