Pay Continuation. If an employee who has filed a claim for workers compensation is unable to work due to the injury and has provided his/her supervisor with written authorization to be off work from his/her treating physician, the employee will continue to receive the same wage at the same pay interval that the employee received at the time of injury based upon the employee’s regular working schedule, exclusive of overtime. Such payment shall be deemed timely payment of temporary disability payments pursuant to Oregon law. This compensation will commence after the required three (3) day waiting period has been met, and shall continue for 180 consecutive calendar days from the date upon which payments commence or until the employee has returned to regular or modified work pursuant to written authorization from the employee’s treating physician. If the employee continues to be unable to work beyond 180 consecutive calendar days from the date upon which payments commence as authorized in writing from his/her treating physician, then the employee will begin receiving temporary disability compensation as required by Oregon law. The employee shall not complete qualified payroll periods after the 180 consecutive calendar days of pay continuation if the employee remains unable to work. When receiving temporary disability compensation, the employee may elect to use accrued leave to make up the difference between temporary disability compensation and his/her regular straight time pay. The day of injury shall be considered a work day, and the employee will receive his/her regular straight time pay for that day without charging his/her leave accruals for any time not worked due to the injury.
