Is there a time limit for filing a PA workers’ compensation claim?
After a work injury in PA, you have limited time to file a workers’ compensation claim. Under Pennsylvania law, you must file a workers’ comp claim within three years of the date you were injured. However, if you have certain occupational illnesses, such as mesothelioma, black lung disease, and other conditions that take years to develop, you have up to 300 weeks from the date you last worked in the job where you developed the illness.
