Worker's Compensation
REPORTING ACCIDENTS AND/OR INJURIES (NEEDING MEDICAL CARE OR NOT)
Accidents and injuries that occur at work, during your work hours, must be reported immediately to your direct supervisor, your school building administrator (if applicable and different from your direct supervisor), and Puget Sound Workers' Compensation Trust. Puget Sound Workers’ Compensation Trust is the third-party administrator who manages the district’s employee accident reports and work injury claims.
Puget Sound Workers' Compensation Trust is here to help.
