Work-related Injury or Illness

In case of serious injury or illness, you should arrange to go immediately to a college-designated physician for treatment. You should request that a fellow employee notify your supervisor. In addition, if you are unable to drive yourself to the physician's office, you should request a co-worker to help you.

If you are able, immediately report any injury, no matter how small, to your supervisor. Then prepare an incident report and send it to the Office of Human Resources . If you are unable to prepare the report, it is your supervisor's responsibility to prepare it and send it to the Office of Human Resources .

Remember, medical and hospital expenses resulting from injuries suffered while on the job are paid by Worker's Compensation Insurance. If you do not report the accident or injury promptly, these benefits may be delayed or denied.

If you have a serious injury and need immediate transport please contact the Campus Safety And Security/Parking Services Department at 4600.
