How is the amount of my work comp check calculated?

Per 440.14(1)(a), the amount of your work comp checks is based on what your employer has paid or contributed to you in the thirteen weeks prior to your accident, which is called your average weekly wage (“AWW”). Then, based on the level of your disability, you are paid a percentage of the AWW, usually every two weeks.
