Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a workers compensation claim in New Jersey?
In New Jersey you generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a workers compensation claim. For occupational diseases the time limit is two years from when you knew or should have known the condition was work related. Missing this deadline can bar you from receiving benefits.
What benefits can I receive under New Jersey workers compensation?
New Jersey workers compensation provides medical treatment for your injury and temporary disability payments at 70% of your average weekly wage up to a state maximum. You may also receive permanent disability benefits and job retraining if you cannot return to your previous work.
Can I sue my employer for a workplace injury in New Jersey?
Generally no. New Jersey workers compensation is a no fault system meaning you cannot sue your employer for a workplace injury. The trade off is you receive benefits without having to prove fault. However you may sue a third party if someone other than your employer caused the injury.
