Disablement benefit is admissible for disablement caused by employment injury. At the first instance, temporary disablement benefit is payable as long as the temporary disability lasts. If the employment injury results in partial or total/permanent disability, permanent disablement benefit is payable till the death of the insured person.
No contributory conditions are prescribed for this benefit. While the rate of temporary disablement benefit is 70% or a little more of the wages and that of permanent disablement benefit is proportionate to the loss of earning capacity caused by the injury.
