Maximum and minimum weekly compensation.
(b) For the purpose of this section, the average weekly wage of the state shall be determined by the secretary as follows: On or before June 1 of each year, the total wages reported on contribution reports to the unemployment compensation division of the department for the preceding calendar year shall be divided by the average monthly number of insured workers, which shall be determined by dividing the sum of the number of insured workers reported for each month of the preceding year by 12. The average annual wage thus obtained shall be divided by 52, and the average weekly wage thus determined rounded to the nearest cent. The average weekly wage as so determined shall be applicable for the 12-month period beginning July 1 following the June 1 determination. If the determination shall not be made on or before June 1, the effective date of the average weekly wage when determined shall be the first day of the month next following 30 days after the determination is made.
(f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this article, the compensation benefits payable to a surviving dependent child of a law enforcement officer or firefighter who was killed as a result of injuries received while engaged in the performance of his or her duties shall not discontinue at least until the dependent child reaches the age of 18 years.
