Workers compensation in Pennsylvania pays for medical care and physical therapy for employees that are injured as a result of working for your business. This coverage also pays for lost wages while the employee is unable to work. This coverage can protect your business from a lawsuit.
Workers’ compensation in Pennsylvania is a type of insurance that provides wage replacement and medical benefits to employees injured on the job in exchange for mandatory relinquishment of the employee’s right to sue his or her employer for negligence.
