1. If your client has not claimed any monetary benefit from his employer he can be compensated.
2. The number of days accumulated in his account on medical leave, thereafter without pay.

I concurred with the above statements of law. In the mean time he can also claim compensation from the MACT, if the offending vehicle is insured and that your client is not negligent.

Had he filed any compensation case before the MACT?
In my view he can claim compensation for loss of earnings but would have to reimburse
his employer for number of days his employer
paid him salary.

Any leave taken beyond the balance of leave available with the employee would be treated as leave without pay till department rules are to the contrary.
Claim can be from MACT.
