The amount of worker's compensation received will depend on the finger lost. Federal guidelines require the complete loss of a thumb to be paid at 75 weeks' compensation and the complete loss of the first finger to be paid at 46 weeks' compensation. The weeks, compensation is based on current pay of the employee and may be adjusted based on the percentage of loss. For instance, if one quarter of the first finger is lost, the adjustment may pay out at one fourth of the 46 weeks' compensation.
