Can I get both workers compensation and Social Security disability benefits at the same time?
Yes. In most states, Social Security disability benefits are offset, or reduced, because of workers compensation benefits paid. In a few states it is the other way around — workers compensation benefits are reduced because of Social Security disability benefits. In almost all cases, there are still some Social Security disability benefits to be paid even if you are receiving workers compensation benefits. As important as workers compensation is, Social Security disability is more important because, unlike workers compensation, Social Security disability can last for the rest of your life.
