Workers' Compensation Plan
Incidents should be reported no more than 24-48 hours after an occurrence.
The Employee Accident/Injury Report form also known as the First Report of Injury is the document that initiates workers’ compensation benefits to the injured employee. Any delay involving the submission of this form, is delaying an injured employee’s receipt of benefits to which he or she may be entitled. The Employee Accident/Injury Report must be completed in its entirety, signed by a supervisor, and sent to my attention: Missy McCoy, Board of Education (Personnel Fax # 203-630-4205) or through interoffice mail. Please keep a copy for your records.
If further medical attention is needed after seeing the school nurse, the employee should be immediately referred to Yale New Haven Health in Hamden, CT for care.
