Destruction of Clothing or Personal Property. The Employer will provide just compensation for destruction of approved clothing, prosthetic devices, or personal property when loss or damage is caused as a result of aggressive patient behavior, or a work-related accident that is not the result of employee negligence. Such loss must be reported to the immediate supervisor prior to the end of the shift during which the incident occurred and a claim be made to local Management within seventy-two (72) hours. Reimbursement will not be provided for damaged items that are covered by insurance provided by the employer or by another payor other than the employee.
