What is Continuation Of Pay?

Continuation of Pay (COP) is a benefit provided to employees who are unable to work due to a work-related injury or illness. It allows the employee to continue receiving their regular pay for a specified period, typically up to 45 days, while they recover. This benefit is designed to provide financial stability to the injured worker during their recovery period without having to use their own sick or vacation leave. The continuation of pay is usually calculated based on the employee’s average weekly wage and the number of weeks they are unable to work.
