Oklahoma Workers' Comp Settlement Calculator
Estimate a workers' comp settlement under Oklahoma law. The calculator applies this jurisdiction's own benefit rate and weekly maximum, and every figure below is the one our verified data holds, with the statute behind it and the date we checked it.
What Oklahoma pays, and when you must act
Workers' compensation pays a share of your wage while you cannot work, whoever was at fault, up to a weekly maximum the state sets. Two deadlines run from the injury: one for reporting it and one for filing the claim. Here is what we hold for this state.
We do not hold a verified current maximum weekly benefit for Oklahoma. The Commission lists 2026 benefit charts but the current document could not be opened, and the $1,083.46 figure for 2025 may not be carried forward. The 70% rate is verified and is applied to gross wages.
85A Okla. Stat. § 67·Last reviewed 2026-08-09
“A. If the employee and employer shall reach an agreement for the full, final and complete settlement of any issue of a claim pursuant to this act, a form designated as "Joint Petition" shall be signed by both the employer and employee, or representatives thereof, and shall be approved by the Workers' Compensation Commission or an administrative law judge, and filed with the Workers' Compensation Commission.”

What Oklahoma pays at different wages
The weekly benefit the calculator above pays at six average weekly wages, and what that comes to over 12 weeks out of work. The numbers are the engine's output, not an editorial claim about what these claims are worth.
Temporary total disability only, run through the calculator above at each wage: no medical costs, no permanent impairment, no waiting period or limit on the number of weeks, and one rate for every week, so a different rate the state sets for part of a claim (see the note under the maximum) is not applied. We hold no verified maximum weekly benefit for Oklahoma, so these rows apply 70% with no ceiling. Oklahoma does cap the weekly benefit, so at the higher wages the real benefit can be lower than shown. These wages illustrate the rule; they are not an estimate of your claim.
Every Oklahoma deadline we hold
A claim can be more than one kind of case, and the clock is different for each. These are the Oklahoma periods in our verified data, with the statute behind each one. A deadline is the outside limit, never a target, and other rules can shorten it.

Every count below is read from our state-law data across all 51 jurisdictions, so it moves when the data does. What you will not find here is an average settlement figure: the only one we could compute is a model, and a model presented as a measurement is not a fact.
- Oklahoma pays 70% of the wage, as 3 of the 51 jurisdictions we track do. The most common rate is 66.67%, paid in 39. It applies the rate to gross wages, as 47 of the 51 do; the rest use after-tax earnings.
- 34 of the 51 jurisdictions have a verified maximum weekly benefit in our data, and they run from $800 in Georgia to $2,431 in Iowa. Oklahoma is one of the 17 we hold no verified current figure for, so this page does not rank it.
- Oklahoma's 1 year to file is shorter than the 2 years that 24 jurisdictions use, so there is less time than a reader comparing states might expect. Across the 51 jurisdictions the deadline for this case type runs from 1 year to 4 years.
- In 44 of the 51 jurisdictions, the statute we read provides for settling or commuting a claim to a lump sum on the terms it states; in 4 it allows one only in the cases it names; and for 3 we could not read an official copy. Oklahoma is in the first group.
Comparisons are drawn from the rules that set a benefit, not from closed-claim data, which we do not hold. See the full methodology
