Florida Insurance Claims Adjuster License Practice Exam

An employee is injured on the job and is out of work for 10 days. How many days' wages can this employee recover?

1. A. No recovery

2. B. 5 days

3. C. 3 days

4. D. 10 days

The correct answer is: C. 3 days

An injured employee may be eligible for workers' compensation benefits, which typically covers a portion of their lost wages while they are unable to work. The amount of days' wages that an employee can recover is specific to each state's workers' compensation laws, but in this scenario, the employee can recover 3 days' wages. Option A is incorrect because the employee may potentially be eligible for recovery. Option B is incorrect because the employee was out of work for 10 days, not 5 days. Option D is incorrect because the question is asking for the number of days' wages that can be recovered, not the total number of days the employee was out of work.
