When may the department impute wages in cases where willful misrepresentation has been determined?
The department may impute wages when:
• The worker is self-employed; or
• Appropriate payroll records are not available; or
• The employer is paying the worker in cash or material without maintaining appropriate payroll records; or
• There is no employer but the worker has engaged in a repeated pattern of work-type activities or has willfully misrepresented his or her physical restrictions.
