According to the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment, “there are two types of permanent partial disability:
Scheduled Impairment: loss of function affecting the toes, feet, legs, fingers, hands, arms, eyes, vision or hearing, compensated based on a schedule of values related to each body part
Non-Scheduled (Whole Person) Impairment: loss of function affecting body parts not listed on the schedule above, such as the spine, lungs, and mental function, compensated based on factors of impairment rating assigned by the doctor, age factors, a fixed factor of 400 weeks, and temporary total disability rate.”
There’s also permanent total disability meaning the injured worker is unable to work, as a result, the worker is paid workers compensation benefits for the remainder of their life.
