Workers’ compensation benefits for deceased workers helps compensate their families for the loss of their income and can pay for funeral expenses. In Maryland, a surviving spouse is generally entitled to death benefits. However, spouses who separated after the initial accident or injury, but before death, may be unable to recover death benefits.
While death benefits can make a huge difference in the financial security of surviving family members, they are limited to two-thirds of the average working wage of the deceased worker. Benefits cannot exceed 100% of the state average weekly wage if the deceased spouse was the sole breadwinner. If both spouses earn an income, the benefits will be reduced. If the surviving spouse remarries, death benefit payments will likely cease.
Surviving children may also obtain compensation until they turn 18. If the child is over 18 but wholly dependent due to physical or mental disabilities, or if they are under 23 and attending school full time, they can continue to receive benefits.
