    No. AP-67.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.
    Aug. 26, 1983.
    Richard A. Sicking of Kaplan, Sicking, Hessen, Sugarman, Rosenthal & DeCastro, Miami, for appellant.
    Robert D. McAliley of Brennan, McAliley, Hayskar, McAliley & Jefferson, West Palm Beach, for appellee.
    Mary Ann Stiles of Stiles & Livingston, Tampa, for amicus curiae Associated Industries of Fla., Inc.
   ON MOTION FOR REHEARING

PER CURIAM.

Appellant’s motion for rehearing is denied, 437 So.2d 678 (Fla.App.1983). Section 440.15(3)(b)(l), Florida Statutes (1979) specifically subjects wage-loss benefits to the maximum compensation rate. The constitutionality of the wage-loss statute has already been upheld. Acton v. Ft. Lauderdale Hospital, 418 So.2d 1099 (Fla. 1st DCA 1982).

LARRY G. SMITH, JOANOS and NIM-MONS, JJ., concur.
