Understanding Workers' Compensation Death Widow Benefit

When a worker dies as a result of a workplace accident, their surviving spouse may be eligible for workers' compensation death widow benefits under Connecticut law. These benefits are available to provide financial assistance to widows when they lose their spouse’s financial support.

Workers' compensation death widow benefits typically include monetary compensation to help the widow cover funeral expenses, medical bills, and ongoing living expenses. The amount of compensation will vary based on several factors, including the deceased worker's earnings and the number of dependents they leave behind.
