Policy Title: Employee Injury on the Job Code No. 403.2
When an employee becomes seriously injured on the job, the building principal will notify a member of the family, or an individual of close relationship, as soon as the building principal 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 employees as quickly as possible. The school district is not responsible for medical treatment of an injured employee.
It is the responsibility of the employee injured on the job to call the worker’s compensation number as soon as possible after the incident and to notify the supervisor.
