Basic Information on Workers’ Compensation

I have updated an information document on Worker’s Compensation that is available to review. It serves to provide information on key concepts of Workers’ Compensation and to review related policies and procedures.

Topics covered include a brief overview of the purpose behind Workers’ Compensation, how and when to report an injury, where to go for medical care, how to record time away from work for a doctor’s appointment or therapy, and returning to work following an injury. Please take the time to read through the information.

As a reminder, employees who suffer a work-related injury between 6:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m., should go to University Work Injury Services located on the ground floor of University Hospital, Rm. MC-11.
