Industrial Accidents. On‐the‐job accidents are covered under the District’s Worker’s Compensation insurance policy. It shall be the duty of all employees to make an immediate report of an on‐the‐job accidental injury to their Supervisor or the Assistant General Manager. Employees who are on a Worker’s Compensation leave of absence are required to exhaust all available accrued sick leave. Once sick leave is exhausted, the employee has the option to use any other available leave balances, prior to being placed on leave of absence without pay. While on leave of absence without pay, employees will not accrue sick leave, vacation leave, administrative leave, seniority, or CalPERS service credits.

Industrial Accidents. 1. In accordance with Labor Code Section 4600, the County has the right to require the treatment of work-related injuries or illnesses by a County-designated physician, except that after thirty (30) days from the date that the injury is reported, the employee may be treated by a physician of his or her own choice within a reasonable geographic area. Pursuant to Cal Reg. §9781, the employee may request a one-time change of physician with a notice provided to their assigned claims administrator. Per LC 4600 (d)(a), if an employee has notified his or her employer in writing prior to the date of injury that he or she has a personal physician, the employee shall have the right to be treated by that physician from the date of injury. A pre-designation form is available on the MINE.
Industrial Accidents. 1. In cases where an employee initiates a workers’ compensation claim, the County will provide full pay, without charge, against sick leave during the first (1st) week off work, or any portion thereof, following an industrial accident, provided that the County determines: • That time off work is warranted for the injury or for treatment; and • That the duration of time off work is warranted. If a claim is denied and the following conditions are met, 1) the County continues to determine the time and duration off work are warranted and 2) the employee has received the first week of coverage, then a leave adjustment will be completed by the department so that the week is charged against the employee’s sick or other leave. In all other cases, accumulated sick leave shall be applied to time off work following an industrial accident in a proportionate amount which, when added to workers’ compensation benefits, provides total compensation equal to the employee’s wage or salary. Upon exhaustion of accumulated sick leave, accrued vacation time may be applied in the same manner.

When, after the employee returns to work, there is a bona fide reoccurrence of the injury on the job and an authorized representative of management, acting on the recommendation of a doctor, excuses the employee from work, he shall be paid for the balance of the shift. Employees who are working after having a compensable injury or illness who are required to take time off during a regular working day to receive medical treatment for such compensable injury or illness shall be paid their regular hourly rate of pay for such time off.
