Missouri Workers’ Compensation is a no-fault system of benefits provided to employees who suffer from an injury or illness due to a work-related incident. This system is designed to provide medical benefits, wage replacement, and rehabilitation services to an employee who has been injured or become ill while on the job. The system is funded by employers paying premiums to the state of Missouri. Depending on the severity of the injury or illness, the employee may be entitled to receive compensation for medical costs, lost wages, and permanent disability. There are two types of Missouri Workers’ Compensation: Temporary Total Disability (TTD) and Permanent Total Disability (LTD). TTD is a weekly wage-replacement benefit for those unable to work due to a work-related injury or illness. LTD is a benefit for those who are permanently disabled due to a work-related injury or illness and unable to work in any occupation.
