Understanding Workers’ Compensation in Pennsylvania
Workers’ compensation is and has been a no-fault law in Pennsylvania for over 100 years it is a system, a law, designed to support employees who get hurt or become ill due to their job. Regardless of fault, you are entitled to certain and set rights, this includes coverage for:
Medical bills related to your injury
Lost wages while you’re unable to work
Specific loss benefits (for permanent injury to a body part)
Death benefits for dependents in fatal cases
One key thing to know:
Workers’ comp in Pennsylvania is a “no-fault” system—you’re entitled to benefits even if the accident wasn’t your employer’s fault. But you must report the injury within 120 days, and the sooner, the better. Waiting too long can limit or even block your claim.
Why Workers’ Comp Claims Can Get Complicated
Although the system is meant to help, many injured workers find themselves facing delays, denials, or pressure to return to work's duties long before they’re ready. Insurance companies may dispute how severe your injury is, say it's a pre-existing condition—or whether it happened at work at all. You might be sent to an Independent Medical Exam (IME) doctor who minimizes your condition, or you have been told your benefits are now being cut off.
Without a lawyer, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed or give in to pressure. A skilled attorney can push back and protect your rights from day one. Call, click or stop by our office to schedule a free consultation appointment with Attorney Tony Vellner.
