Depends widely on your state laws, but in most states it's 66 2/3 of your AWW ( average weekly wage). Your AWW is calculated by taking the last 26 weeks of your earnings and taking the average. All states have minimums and maximums, you'd have to check with your state dept of labor on that

No. Because the doctor has verified that are able to work, and you are receiving a normal paycheck on company time. Now a check from workers comp may overlap with your employer pay, but, once workers comp has been notified, that you are working, light duty or otherwise, those payments will stop.
No; however, they might be modified to reflect any change in net income.
Yes, the disability insurance payments can be paid on top of any workers comp payments received, if the policy's benefit is not integrated with any supplemental benefits. If your disability insurance policy is integrated with supplemental disability benefits, then the disability payments will be offset dollar for dollar by any mount received from workers comp or social security. That's why when you get a disability insurance policy, it is advised to include all or most of the disability benefit amount as "base benefit" which does not offset by any supplemental benefits received.
Workers comp payments (whether a settlement or not) are generally not taxable. However, if the payment causes your Social Security benefits to be reduced, the part of the benefit that reduces your SS payment will be treated as if it were an SS payment.
