Retaliation for Workers’ Comp Claims in Pennsylvania: Know Your Rights - Luxenberg Garbett Kelly & George P.C.

From Luxenberg Garbett Kelly & George P.C. – Retaliation for Workers’ Comp Claims in Pennsylvania: Know Your Rights dives into how workers across Western Pennsylvania can protect themselves when employers take illegal action after a workplace injury. This episode unpacks the essential protections offered by the Pennsylvania Workers’ Compensation Act and explains why filing for benefits should never cost someone their job, pay, or dignity.

Listeners will hear how at‑will employment rules intersect with strong public policy protections, as well as how Title 43 § 933.10 serves as a shield against retaliation. We explore what retaliation looks like in real workplaces, from wrongful termination and demotion to pay cuts and hostile management tactics. The podcast brings clarity to these complex issues and helps you recognize warning signs early.

You’ll also discover the differences between a standard workers’ compensation claim handled through the Pennsylvania Department of Labor & Industry and a civil retaliation lawsuit in the Court of Common Pleas. We highlight how these two legal tracks work together, the types of damages available—like back pay, front pay, and punitive damages—and what steps you can take if you’ve experienced subtle or overt forms of retaliation.

Finally, the conversation highlights the work of attorneys Lawrence M. Kelly and Joseph A. George at Luxenberg Garbett Kelly & George P.C., whose dedication to protecting injured workers has been recognized by honors such as Pennsylvania Super Lawyers, the American Trial Lawyers Association, and the Pennsylvania Association for Justice. Tune in to learn how you can stand up for your rights and move forward with confidence after a workplace injury.
