    Permanent partial disability awards and/or settlements are determined by a mathematical formula using 60% of the injured employee’s average weekly wage, commonly referred to as the PPD factor.  A percentage of permanent partial disability for the affected body part is then calculated by an assigned number of weeks under the Illinois Workers’ Compensation Act.  The legal percentage of permanent partial disability multiplied by the permanent partial disability rate equals the permanent partial disability settlement.
