        "description": "In Utah, you generally have one year from the accident or date of disability to file a workers' comp claim with the Labor Commission.[2] Missing this bars benefits unless good cause shown. Key factors: (1) One-year statute from injury or knowledge; (2) Employer must be notified sooner; (3) Late claims need justification like delayed symptoms; (4) Appeals have separate timelines. Report immediately and file formally within deadline. Track all dates and seek legal advice to avoid denial."
