If an
accident on university owned, operated or leased property results in an injury
to a DePaul employee, the employee or their supervisor must
contact Compliance & Risk Management to file a Workers
Compensation claim no later than one business day after the injury.
If an
accident occurs at an off-campus university sponsored event, while away on
university business, or at an off-campus educational activity, the following
must occur:
- Seeking proper medical attention is the first priority.
- If the off-campus accident results in an injury to a DePaul employee or
student, the injured party should follow the applicable policies and procedures
of the off-campus site.
- As soon as practicable, the injured party must file a report with DePaul's
Public Safety Office.
If an
injury occurs to a DePaul student, the DePaul employee overseeing the activity
is responsible for ensuring the student follows these procedures. Please review
the full policy, here.
