After 45 weeks, the normal weekly hours (NWH) worked by a client in a week is relevant to the amount of incapacity compensation received for that week. Where a client is actually employed for part or all of a week, their payment is increased according to a scale set out in S19(3) based on the number of actual hours worked as a percentage of normal weekly hours.
During the first 45 weeks of incapacity, compensation is paid at 100% of NWE under S19(2)-(2C), making it unnecessary to compare actual hours of employment with normal weekly hours. See chapter 33 re: first 45 weeks.
