Not legally
Certainly. WC has two components: 100% coverage of med expenses for workplace injury and insurance benefits that pay for lost work time if incapacitated from doing the JOB ON WHICH YOU GOT INJURED.
SO you can earn income while getting med bills paid but no lost time benefit.
You can also earn income while getting lost time benefits, if you have a home business, a second job from which your doctor has not incapacitated you, or even weekend Reserve duty pay. You cannot work a job similar to the one you are paid not to work.
