Individual, Business and/or Local Impact:
Businesses and local governments may be impacted due to potential increases in workers' compensation costs due to individuals' ability to maintain their full disability payments while receiving Social Security payments with cost of living increases. Individuals may benefit due to the potential ability to continue to receive their full disability payments without a decrease in benefit for people who also receive Social Security benefits.
