If an injured worker has two or more part time jobs, he/she is entitled to have the normal weekly earnings calculated on the total pay received from all part time jobs. The employer at the time of the injury is required to pay the full weekly rate for all jobs. However if the injured employee has a full time job and other part time jobs, the normal weekly earnings figure is calculated upon the basis of the full time job only. Once again the employer at the time of the injury is required to pay the full weekly benefit even if it is the employer for the part time job only.
