Filing Deadline
3 Years
Workers’ compensation claims and workplace injury lawsuits must be initiated within 3 years. However, you should report workplace injuries to your employer immediately — delays in reporting can complicate your claim even if you are within the statute of limitations.
Calculate Your Specific Deadline
Discovery rule exceptions may apply if you did not know about the injury immediately.
