Ohio Workers' Compensation Permanent Disability Claims

Permanent Total Disability Payments
Permanent Total Disability (PTD) is an award granted to workers when their job-related injuries render them unable to perform sustained employment. These benefits are intended to compensate the injured employees for the remainder of their lives. Before receiving this form of compensation, an applicant must submit to an examination and hearing by the Ohio Industrial Commission.
Statutory Permanent Total Disability Compensation
Statutory Permanent Total Disability is compensation given to workers whose job injuries have resulted in the loss of two or more body functions, such as eyesight, hearing, arms, hands, legs or feet. These benefits are paid for the rest of the injured employee's life, regardless of whether or not the individual is able to work.
