All accidents to faculty or staff members, visitors, volunteers and students are reportable under this policy. Automobile accidents are to be reported on this form only if an accident results in a work-related injury to a faculty or staff member. All University faculty or staff members are required to report incidents to their supervisors. Department supervisors are responsible for completing reports on incidents occurring within their area of responsibility. A faculty or staff member who is notified or aware of a previously unreported incident, occurring in the areas specifies, must notify security immediately.
Photographs are to be taken of each incident scene immediately after a reportable event takes place.
Photographs will be taken by Security personnel. Faculty or staff members will not be referred to a Worker's Compensation physician until a complete Incident Report is received by the Personnel Office. However, in the event that emergency medical care is required, the supervisor should assist the injured faculty or staff member in obtaining appropriate emergency treatment. Copies of the report must also be forwarded to the Office of Risk and Claims Management and to the Security Director.
