8442 - ON-THE-JOB INJURY

Any employee incurring an injury while engaged in his/her performance of District duties shall report the details of the accident to his/her supervisor who, in turn, shall abide by the following procedure:

 

The injured employee shall report to his/her principal's/supervisor's office and complete Form 8442 F1 before selecting a health care provider certified by the Bureau of Workers Compensation. A list of qualified providers is available in each building or by calling 1-800-642 PLUS (7587). An employee is personally liable for the costs of any treatment or care provided by an uncertified physician or hospital. The only exception will be if the injury is of such a nature that it requires immediate emergency attention. In that case, treatment should be undertaken and the initial visit is ALWAYS covered for a work-related accident deemed compensable by the Bureau. A report of the accident is to be made to the principal's/supervisor's office at the earliest opportunity.
