Video Transcription: If your authorized treating physician takes you off of the work or gives you work restrictions you will be entitled to indemnity benefits. There are three tapes indemnity benefits: temporary total disability, temporary partial disability, and permanent disability. If your doctor takes you off of work completely, you will get temporal total disability, which is the 66% of the average of your wage.
