How Long After An Injury Do I Have To Report It To My Employer?
You should tell your employer as soon as possible that you have been injured. You must tell your employer within 90 days of your injury, or when you learn of your injury, that you have been injured. If you wait more than 90 days after the injury, you will lose the right to claim workers` compensation benefits.
