§ 43:21-30.

Nonduplication of benefits. (a) No benefits shall be required or paid under this act for any period with respect

to which benefits are paid or payable under any unemployment compensation or similar

law, or under any disability or cash sickness benefit or similar law, of this State

or of any other state or of the federal government , except that: (1) If a claimant is otherwise eligible for benefits under P.L.1948, c. 110 ( C.43:21-25 et seq. ) and benefits are also paid or payable to the claimant under a disability benefit

law of another state, the claimant shall be paid the benefits provided by P.L.1948,

c. 110 ( C.43:21-25 et seq. ), reduced by the amount paid concurrently under the provisions of the other state's

law; and (2) If a claimant is otherwise eligible for benefits under P.L.1948, c. 110 ( C.43:21-25 et seq. ) and benefits are also paid or payable to the claimant under a disability or cash

sickness program known as maintenance and cure as provided under the federal maritime

law commonly referred to as the Jones Act, the claimant shall be paid the benefits

provided by P.L.1948, c. 110 ( C.43:21-25 et seq. ), reduced by the amount paid concurrently under the provisions of the maintenance

and cure program. (b) No benefits shall be required or paid under this act for any period with respect to which benefits,

other than benefits for permanent partial or permanent total disability previously

incurred, are paid or payable on account of the disability of the covered individual

under any workers' compensation law, occupational disease law, or similar legislation,

of this State or of any other state or the federal government , except that: (1) Where a claimant's claim for compensation for temporary disability, under the provisions

of subsection a. of R.S.34:15-12 , is contested, and thereby delayed, and such claimant is otherwise eligible for benefits

under this chapter, said claimant shall be paid the benefits provided by this chapter

until and unless said claimant receives compensation under the provisions of subsection

a. of R.S.34:15-12 ; (2) In the event that workers' compensation benefits, other than benefits for permanent

partial or permanent total disability previously incurred, are subsequently awarded

for weeks with respect to which the claimant has received disability benefits pursuant

to this act, the State fund, or the private plan, as the case may be, shall be entitled

to be subrogated to such claimant's rights in such award to the extent of the amount

of disability payments made hereunder ; and (3) If there has been a settlement of a workers' compensation claim pursuant to R.S.34:15-20 in an amount less than that to which the claimant would otherwise be entitled as

disability benefits under the “Temporary Disability Benefits Law,” P.L.1948, c. 110

( C.43:21-25 et seq. ), for the same illness or injury, the claimant shall be entitled to disability benefits

for the period of disability, reduced by the amount from the settlement received by

the claimant under R.S.34:15-20 . The State fund or a private plan seeking to recover any amount of disability benefit

payments from a workers' compensation award shall be required to demonstrate that

the recovery is in compliance with the provisions of this section. (c) Disability benefits otherwise required under the “Temporary Disability Benefits

Law,” P.L.1948, c. 110 ( C.43:21-25 et seq. ) shall be reduced by the amount paid concurrently under any governmental or private

retirement, pension or permanent disability benefit or allowance program to which

his most recent employer contributed on his behalf.
