PAP.5.6.080 Workers' Compensation

The LCO-CHC carries insurance to cover the cost of work-incurred injury or illness. Benefits help pay for employees' medical treatment and a portion of any income lost while recovering. An employee must report any work-related injury or illness to his or her department head or director by completing the "First Report of Injury or Illness Form," which must be completed within the timelines as stated in the Chapter CMP.6 – Worker's Compensation Code. Refer to the Chapter CMP.6 – Worker's Compensation Code for additional guidelines.
