Worker’s compensation will increase in Wisconsin.
Governor Tony Evers approved the bill, which increases weekly permanent partial disability rate from 430-dollars to 438 for any injuries for this year. In 2025, it will increase another eight dollars. Other alterations include extending the statute of limitations and gender neutral language in marriage-related statutes. The bill was initially approved by the Worker’s Compensation Advisory Council, which is made up of both employee and employer representatives and insurer reps.
