§ 87043 Temporary Disability Check Waiver
A community college janitor breaks his leg at work and can't work for a month.
The janitor gets a temporary disability check for $2,000. Normally, he would have to give this check to the college, but the college lets him keep it. The college still pays his normal salary of $3,000, but takes out $500 for retirement and other deductions. So, the janitor gets to keep his $2,000 disability check and also gets $2,500 from the college. His benefits are calculated based on his regular $3,000 salary.
