Iowa Code r. 876-8.6 - Calendar days-decimal equivalent

Weekly compensation benefits payable under Iowa Code chapters 85 and 85A are based upon a seven-day calendar week. Each day of weekly compensation benefits due may be paid by multiplying the employee's weekly compensation benefit rate by the decimal equivalents of the number of days as follows:

1 day	=	.143	×	weekly rate
2 days	=	.286	×	weekly rate
3 days	=	.429	×	weekly rate
4 days	=	.571	×	weekly rate
5 days	=	.714	×	weekly rate
6 days	=	.857	×	weekly rate

This rule is intended to implement Iowa Code sections 85.31, 85.33 and 85.34.
