What is the amount of the EC income cash benefit for Sickness?

The EC income cash benefit for sickness is equivalent to 90% of the average daily salary credit (ADSC).

To compute the ADSC, divide the total monthly wage credit by 180 days. Next, multiply the ADSC by 90% to determine the daily sickness benefit.

The Employees’ Compensation (EC) program aids workers experiencing work-related sickness or injury leading to disability or death. Benefits from the EC program can be received concurrently with benefits from the social security program.
