COLA
If you are receiving Time Loss or Pension benefits under a Washington State Labor & Industries claim, your July check will reflect an increase. Cost of Living Adjustments are effective July 1 each year. This year’s increase is 5.018%. Pension payments, which go out the 15th of each month, will reflect the increase. Time loss for periods on or after July 1 will also reflect the increase. Your time loss check may cover periods both before and after the COLA, the daily rate will reflect the difference. You can read the press release from the Department here;
