Workers' Compensation - Subsequent Injury (§35B)- Massachusetts

An employee who has been receiving Workers' Compensation, has returned to work for two months or more, and is subsequently re-injured, receives Workers’ Compensation at the rate in effect at the time of the new injury (unless the old injury was paid in lump sum). If the old injury was settled with a lump sum, then the employee will be compensated only if the new claim can be determined to be a new injury.
