Legal Question in Workers Comp in Florida

Workers Compenstion-Florida-Pay from WC Company

When I was released back to light duty after having surgery from a wc injury, the WC company paid me based on my average weekly wage less the gross amount I was paid from my employer. Is this correct or should I have the ''net'' amount have been deducted-which means I would have received more from the wc company
