Pennsylvania Sets 2015 Rate Schedule

01.05.15

The 2015 Workers' Compensation Rate Schedule has been approved by the Secretary of Labor and Industry.

The maximum compensation payable under the Workers' Compensation Act will be $951.00 per week for injuries occurring on and after Jan. 1, 2015. This applies to an AWW of $1426.51 or more.  For an AWW between $713.26 and $1426.50, the rate is calculated by multiplying the AWW by 66 2/3.  For an AWW between $528.33 and $713.25, the rate is fixed at $475.50.  The rate is 90% for an AWW of $528.32 or less. 

The following chart provides not only the 2015 rate schedule but also the rate schedule for 2010 – 2014.
