What is workers’ compensation?

Workers’ compensation is a form of insurance that the state of Pennsylvania requires employers to carry so that employees who suffer a work-related injury or illness can receive monetary payments to assist with lost wages and medical care expenses associated with any sort of injury or disability incurred while on the job.

It may prove difficult to receive the benefits to which you are entitled if you are unfamiliar with the process or if your employer’s insurer denies your claim. To receive knowledgeable guidance and legal representation if you have been hurt at work, contact Philadelphia workers’ compensation lawyers of Lowenthal & Abrams, P.C., at 215-238-1130.
