Common use of ACC Clause in Contracts

ACC. 32.1. Where practicable the employee shall notify the employer within one working day of filing any work-related claim with the ACC. The employee shall, in addition, provide the employer with a copy of the relevant ACC forms by which application is made to ACC together with copies of such other documentary evidence and medical certificates as are provided to ACC from time to time. 32.2. At the discretion of ACC, the employee may be required to return to work to undertake such alternative duties (whether on a full-time or part-time basis) as are available and as are reasonably within their capability and level of fitness as determined by agreement with the employer’s/employee’s medical practitioner and employee’s case manager. 32.3. In the event an employee has an accident and/or is injured and that injury is covered by ACC, the employee may request to have their ACC entitlement topped up from the 80% to a 100% of the employee’s normal wage. The cost of the top up will be covered from the employee’s available sick leave entitlement. (Note: five days top up is equal to one day’s sick leave). 32.4. In the event of a non-work-related accident or injury the employee may use their available sick leave entitlement to cover their earnings for the first week of incapacity and/or to top up to 100%.
