Employee Injury Reporting
The ACSC School Board directs that reasonable efforts be made to ensure a safe working environment for the employees of the Avon Community School Corporation.
Employees are required to report all accidents. Any accident which results in an injury to an employee; however slight, must be reported promptly and in writing to Human Resources. Injured employees will be referred immediately to the school nurse or appropriate personnel for medical attention as needed.
The Accident Report should be completed by the employee and sent to Human Resources within 24 hours of the injury. The failure of an employee to comply with this mandate may result in disciplinary action.
IF THE INJURY IS A LIFE-THREATENING EMERGENCY, CALL 911.

Step 1: Report Accident to Supervisor, Immediately
