On the job injury or illness
What to do first when you are injured on the job
All on-the-job injuries and job-related illnesses must be reported as soon as possible. You will not be descriminated or retaliated against for reporting.
- If this is an emergency, call community safety at x6666.
- Seek medical care if needed. You may choose your own medical care provider or you may visit 果酱视频's occupational health clinics, listed below. You may call ahead to one of these clinics, however you may also drop in. An appointment is not required.

- Report your injury or illness to your supervisor immediately.
- Report your injury or illness to human resources immediately, either by calling or sending an email to hr@reed.edu.
- With your supervisor, complete a 果酱视频 accident report form within three calendar days of the injury or illness.
- With your supervisor, complete a Form 801 within three calendar days of the injury or illness.
Completion of Form 801 initiates a workers' compensation claim. Subsequently, you will receive notifications from our workers' compensation insurance, Tristar. If Tristar determines that your injury or illness is work-related, they will accept your claim and notify you. If you claim is accepted, medical treatment for this injury or illness will be paid by Tristar.
Notify your supervisor and human resources immediately if your medical care provider instructs you not to work or provides you with work restrictions. Keep your supervisor and human resources apprised of any changes in your return to work date or any changes in your work restrictions. If you miss work, you will need to provide documentation from your medical care provider to your supervisor and human resources that you have been released to return to work.
Pay and benefits during workers' compensation leave
During the first three days that you miss work, you will use sick time. If you have no sick time, you will use vacation time and if neither are available, these days will be unpaid.
Starting on the fourth consecutive day that you miss work, should your claim be accepted, you will receive time loss payments from Tristar. These payments are equal to your pay prior to your injury. Payment does not begin until your claim is accepted.
While on an approved workers' compensation leave, you will continue to receive benefits provided you continue to pay your portion of the cost.
