Workers Comp
  All States        
Can I recover from my pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life's pleasures, and for emotional distress from my injury?

No. Under the Pennsylvania Workers' Compensation Act, the employee is precluded from suing the employer for pain, suffering, disability, or for causing an employee's injury. The only benefits that the injured worker can recover are wage loss benefits and medical expenses for the work-related injury only.
