More details to this question:
I work on a construction site in an office trailer for 8-10 hours a day for the past 2+ years. It is invested with black mold and after 6mo of being there I started getting sicker and sicker. I am now on sick leave unable to work and believe that the black mold is the cause.

You may have a WC claim but you have to prove by clear and convincing evidence that the black mold from the job caused you problem excluding all other causes. Tell your history to your doctor and see if the doctor will support your claim. If the doctor will put it in writing, then file a claim with the Virginia Workers Compensation Commission.
