Workers’ Compensation Information
All injuries occurring on school or district property should be reported to a building administrator within 24-48 hours. If you are injured at work or experience a re-occurrence of a prior workplace injury, please follow these important steps to ensure proper claim management:
Reporting an Injury
Report the injury immediately to your supervisor, school nurse, or school administrator.
Complete a "Workers Compensation Reporting Worksheet." Download the completed form, and email to Travelers at first.report@travelers.com (as indicated on the form). The form can be completed either by the staff member, or a school administrator or school nurse can assist you.
Please include (1) your supervisor, (2) your building Office Professional, and (3) Human Resources (hr@colchesterct.org) in your email submission of the form

Please note that regardless of the type or severity of an injury, if you require medical care, you will not be permitted to return to work until you have been cleared by the workers comp medical team.
