But should an accident happen, having the right Workers Compensation plan from Jack L. Bonus Insurance can allow your business to ensure payments and cover expenses if an employee is injured from a work-related accident.

Workers Compensation can cover financial obligations such as:
- An injured employee’s medical expenses/treatment
- The replacement of lost wages from injury time off
If your business does not offer Workers Compensation, serious injuries that occur on the job could lead to an employee suing your company for damages. That’s why it’s important to discuss your options with a specialist at Jack L. Bonus Insurance who can help you find the right coverage options for all your business needs.
How Workers Compensation Works in Pennsylvania
Our team helps business owners understand the primary components of this coverage, which generally include:
- Medical Expenses: Coverage for necessary medical treatment, hospital stays, and prescriptions related to the workplace injury.
- Wage Loss Benefits: Partial reimbursement for lost income if an employee is unable to work or must take a lower-paying job during recovery.
- Disability Benefits: Support for employees who suffer permanent impairments.
- Death Benefits: Financial assistance for the dependents of a worker who loses their life due to a work-related incident.
Who Needs Coverage?
In Pennsylvania, nearly every employer is required to carry workers compensation insurance, even if they only have one employee. This includes part-time workers and, in many cases, family members. Failing to maintain this coverage can lead to significant legal penalties, including fines and potential criminal charges.
