When an employee becomes seriously injured on the job, the employee's supervisor will attempt to notify a member of the employee's family or an individual of close relationship, as soon as the supervisor becomes aware of the injury.

 

If possible, an employee may administer emergency or minor first aid.  An injured employee will be turned over to the care of the employee's family or qualified medical personnel as quickly as possible.  The school district is not responsible for the medical treatment of an injured employee.

 

It is the responsibility of the employee injured on the job to inform the superintendent or designee within twenty-four (24) hours of the occurrence.  It is the responsibility of the employee's immediate supervisor to file an accident report within twenty-four (24) hours after the employee reports the injury.
