Workers' Compensation FAQs
What is workers’ compensation?
Workers’ compensation is a type of insurance program that provides financial and medical benefits to employees if they get hurt or sick because of their job.
It covers medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, and partial wage replacement during recovery.
Workers’ compensation benefits are typically provided regardless of fault, meaning employees are eligible even if they contributed to their own injury.
How much does workman’s comp pay?
In Pennsylvania, workman’s comp typically pays injured employees about two-thirds of their average weekly earnings.
The exact amount depends on how much you were earning before the injury, with the state setting a maximum weekly limit each year.
For example, in 2024, the most an injured worker could receive each week was $1,325.
When will workers’ comp offer a settlement?
The insurance company can propose a settlement at any point following an injury, but it’s most common after you reach what’s called “maximum medical improvement,” or MMI.
MMI means your doctor believes you have healed as much as possible, even if you haven’t fully recovered.
If you still have lingering symptoms or limitations at that stage, those issues are usually considered permanent and will influence the settlement amount offered.
How long can you collect workers’ comp?
Under the Pennsylvania Workers’ Compensation Act, the amount of time you can receive workers’ compensation depends on your disability status.
If you have a partial disability, meaning you can still work but earn less due to your injury, you can get benefits for up to 500 weeks.
If your injury leaves you completely unable to work (total disability), benefits can continue indefinitely, but after 104 weeks, your employer or their insurance company can request a medical exam.
If that exam finds you are less than 35% impaired, your benefits status might change to partial disability, which could then limit your benefits to the 500-week maximum.
Can you still work if you file workers’ comp?
Generally, you cannot work full-time while receiving workers’ compensation benefits.
While part-time work might be allowed in some cases, doing so could affect your eligibility or the amount you receive.
If you do work another job while getting benefits, you must report those earnings to your employer’s workers’ compensation insurance provider. Usually, the insurance company will deduct the amount you earn from your other job from your workers’ compensation payments.
