  1. Six Reasons Your Pennsylvania Workers' Compensation Claim May Be Denied

  2. You didn't report your injury as soon as possible If you were injured at work and didn't report it as soon as possible, your Workers' Compensation claim may be denied. Reporting your injury as quickly as possible is essential to proving that the injury occurred while you were working.

  3. Your employer is not aware of the injury and has not been notified To ensure that your Workers' Compensation claim is filed correctly, it is essential to notify your employer as soon as possible of any workplace injuries. Failing to do so may result in a denied claim.

  4. The injury was caused by something other than work If you are injured on the job or while commuting to work, then you should know that there is workers' compensation coverage for your injury. However, if your injury was not caused because of an accident at work, then it will be difficult to get approved for a claim (examples include a car accident, slip and fall, or an animal bite).

  5. You were injured because you violated company policy In some cases, an injured worker may be denied workers' compensation benefits because they violated company policy. For example, your workers' compensation claim may be denied if you were injured while on the job but were also caught smoking cigarettes in the break room.

  6. The failure to wear proper safety gear Many employers are unaware that they may be responsible for compensating workers who are injured on the job, even if the injury results from failure to wear proper safety gear. This can include wearing a hard hat, steel-toed work boots, goggles, or other protective equipment or equipment that could have prevented the injury from occurring.

  7. You are no longer employed with this employer If you have been denied Workers' Compensation because you are no longer employed, it is essential to understand your rights. In some cases, an employee may be considered ineligible for workers' compensation benefits if they no longer work. However, there may be other options available to you.
