Section 436-110-0337 - Wage Subsidy - Worker ActivatedA wage subsidy may be requested by a worker as follows:
(1) The worker and employer must complete and sign Form 2190, "Preferred Worker Wage Subsidy Agreement," and submit it to the division within three years of the date of hire. (2) A preferred worker may use wage subsidy as many times as needed, up to a maximum total reimbursement of $40,000. A worker with an exceptional disability may use wage subsidy twice with no maximum total reimbursement rate. The maximum total reimbursement will be restored if there is a subsequent claim closure, and the worker is unable to return to regular work. (3) If the employer at injury uses wage subsidy for a job, the worker may not use wage subsidy for the same job. (4) A worker can use a second wage subsidy with the same employer for a new job if: (a) The majority of job duties have changed; and (b) At least one year has passed from the end of the first wage subsidy period.Or.
