All employees come under the provisions of the Nebraska Workers’ Compensation law.
Employees are required to immediately report any work-related injury and/or work-related medical condition to their supervisor, call Risk Management and complete all appropriate paperwork. The supervisor is to be knowledgeable of the District’s procedures and direct the employee to comply with the reporting process. Details of eligibility, benefits, reporting, etc. are found in Human Resources Bulletin #2.
The Risk Management Department, with the aid of other human resources personnel and District legal counsel, is responsible for complying with all state and federal regulations related to workers’ compensation and developing risk and cost containment procedures.
