§ 21412 Industrial Disability Retirement Benefits

• •If a state worker gets hurt on the job and can't work anymore, they get money to help them live.
• •The money they get is half of what they made at their job before they got hurt.
• •If they also saved extra money in a special account, they get that too.
• •If they could get more money by retiring normally (like when they get old), they get the bigger amount instead.

A factory worker hurts their back lifting heavy boxes and can't work anymore.

The worker will get half of their usual paycheck every month. If they had been saving extra money in a retirement account, they get that money too. If retiring normally would give them more money, they get the normal retirement money instead.
