Employees are expected to adhere to and abide by all safety rules. Negligence in abiding by safety rules is unacceptable.

1.43 Falsification of Benefits

1. 1.41 Employee Injury

An injury, no matter how slight, incurred by an employee while on duty, must be reported to RCC, the Window Dispatcher or immediate supervisor, immediately. If unable to contact due to unforeseen circumstances, the report must be done as soon as possible, but no later than the end of the shift in which the injury occurred. An Accident/Incident – Employee's Initial Report and an Employee Notice of Injury/Illness must be filled out.

Employees must contact the Risk Management department immediately during normal business hours. Risk Management will provide a list of HRT physicians if the employee is in need of medical attention. For an injury occurring after business hours, contact the Risk Management department on the next business day, regardless of off-days or approved absences.

The intent of the Workers' Compensation Program is to enable an employee to recover from their injury and return to work at 100% capacity. Employees are expected to adhere to the rules of the program; the recommendations of the panel physician; and the light duty work (if referred to do so). While being treated in the Workers' Compensation Program employees are expected to adhere to all directions from the treating physician and from Risk Management.

1. 1.39 Employee Reports

Any incident that involves INJURY to an Operations employee, damage to property, or had the potential to do so, must be reported to the appropriate Supervisor/Manager by completing the Accident/Incident – Employee's Initial Report. This must be accomplished for every incident, even if there are no injuries sustained, as soon as possible, but no later that the end of your shift.
All reports must be true, honest and factual, based upon the occurrence. Employees will not purposely mislead their coworkers, supervisors and/or any other Operations employees in the performance of their duties by making false or misleading statements in their reports, or through verbal and/or written communications.
