INJURY LEAVE POLICY. Xxxxxx leave may be granted to protect an employee against temporary loss of salary when he/she sustains an injury arising out of, or in the course of, the actual performance of his/her job. Such injuries may entitle an employee to the Workers’ Compensation Act benefits. A. In order to receive these benefits, injured employees are required to report the injury without delay to their immediate supervisor; report to a duly qualified physician and have a verification of the injury made to the District; and file an application in the Risk Management Office for Workers’ Compensation benefits within the number of days specified in Colorado statutes. B. In the event of an on-the-job injury to the employee, which is deemed compensable under the Workers’ Compensation Law, the employee will continue to receive compensation that the employee otherwise would have normally earned for up to three (3) days. Such absence will not be charged to sick leave. In those cases where the insurance carrier assumes liability, the injured employee may, beginning with the fourth day of absence due to such injury, receive his/her full salary from the School District less the amount of any workers’ compensation pay received for a period of time not to exceed thirty (30) working days. In such case the absence would not be charged to the employee’s sick leave. C. After the end of the described thirty (30) work days, the employee has two options: 1. He/she may use accumulated sick leave and be paid at his/her full salary less the amount of Workers’ Compensation pay. In such cases the absence is charged against the employee’s accumulated sick leave on a prorated basis for hours of sick leave actually used. 2. He/she may accept only Workers’ Compensation pay in which case sick leave is not charged. D. In cases where the insurance carrier fails to assume any liability, all absences may be charged under the regular sick leave provisions. E. In the case of extreme hardship, an employee so injured in the course of, or in the actual performance of his/her job, my make application to the Superintendent of Schools for further benefits beyond those described above. The Superintendent of Schools will decide whether or not further benefits from the School District are to be granted to the injured employee.
