California law guarantees certain benefits to employees who are injured or become ill because of their jobs.
Any job-related injury is covered, even first aid type injuries and work-related illnesses. The key is whether is was caused by the job. (Some injuries from off-duty social or athletic activity, for example, the company picnic or the department bowling team, may not be covered. ) Check with your supervisor if you have questions.
In the event of a work injury. . .
- Be sure that first aid is given.
- Report injury IMMEDIATELY to your supervisor and request two claim forms. Any delay in reporting an accident may delay workers' compensation benefits.
- Contact West Contra Costa Unified School District Workers' Compensation.
Phone: (510) 231-1166
Fax: (510) 412-0457
- See that the injured employee is taken to a doctor or hospital, if necessary.
