Workers' Compensation

Required Steps for Reporting A Workplace Injury or Illness

**INJURIES MUST BE REPORTED WITHIN 24 HOURS **

Your claim will be sent to Sedgwick, our Workers’ Compensation Carrier.
- Sedgwick will contact you directly by mail to advise if your claim is accepted, denied or delayed for investigation.
- Sedgwick will provide you with the name and contact information for the adjuster assigned to your claim. Your adjuster can answer any questions you have about your claim and your treatment.
- If you have questions specific to your claim, you may contact Sedgwick at 909-942-4804.

Sedgwick will pay for your authorized medical treatment from one of the District’s contracted Occupational Health Clinics or a pre-designated physician.

After each visit with your treating physician, you will be given a status slip from your doctor’s office advising if you are unable to return to work, able to return to work, or able to return to work with modified work restrictions.
- Immediately following each appointment, you are responsible for providing your immediate supervisor with a copy of your status slip.

If your doctor prescribes you medication for your work related injury/illness you must take the Mitchell ScriptAdvisor - Temporary Prescription Benefit Card with you to the pharmacy when you pick up your medication. Doing so ensures the cost of your medication will be paid for by Sedgwick and you will have no out of pocket expense.
