INJURY ON DUTY (a) All employees shall be covered by The Workplace, Health, Safety and Compensation Commission Act, RSNL 1990 Chapter W-11. (b) An employee who is unable to perform the employee’s duties because of a personal injury received in the performance of the employee’s duties shall report the matter to the employee’s Supervisor and submit an account of the accident using the prescribed form as soon as possible. An employee’s claim will not be delayed where the prescribed form is not immediately provided to the employee through the Supervisor. (c) An employee who is unable to perform the employee’s duties because of a personal injury received in the performance of the employee’s duties shall be immediately placed on Injury on Duty Leave and receive compensation in accordance with the provisions of Workplace, Health, Safety and Compensation Commission Act, RSNL 1990 Chapter W-11. If the claim is subsequently denied by the Workers’ Compensation Commission, the employee may access other available benefits including sick leave and annual leave. (a) In the event that the employee dies as a result of an injury received in the performance of the employee’s duties, the employee’s estate shall receive all death benefits owing to the employee in accordance with the provisions of the Workplace, Health, Safety and Compensation Commission Act, RSNL 1990 Chapter W-11, in addition to any benefits the employee would be eligible for under the Public Service Pensions Act. (b) In the event that an employee becomes permanently disabled or incurs a recurring disability as a result of an injury received during the performance of the employee’s duties the employee will receive benefits in accordance with the provisions of The Workplace, Health, Safety and Compensation Commission Act, RSNL 1990 Chapter W-11. (a) An employee confirmed as being unable to perform the regular duties of his/her classification as a result of injury on duty will be employed in other work he/she can do provided a suitable vacancy is available and provided that the employee is qualified and able to perform the duties required. Where a suitable vacancy is available the rate for the new position shall apply. (b) Where a suitable vacancy is not available, the incapacitated employee retains the right to displace a less senior employee in another classification who occupies a position which the incapacitated employee is qualified and able to fill. Where an incapacitated employee advises the permanent head in writing of his/her intention to exercise his/her right to displace a less senior employee, the incapacitated employee will be deemed to have been given notice of layoff effective from the date he/she was confirmed as being unable to perform the regular duties of his/her classification. Accordingly, the right to displace a less senior employee in another classification shall be exercised as per the provisions of Article 35, Layoff, Bumping and Recall. 29.04 In the event that an employee is placed on leave under the provisions of this Article, he/she will not accrue seniority during any period when he/she would normally be laid off. 29.05 The Employer determines whether its employees will be covered directly by the Workers' Compensation Commission or indirectly through a "self-insured" arrangement. Benefits under either arrangement are to be in accordance with the provisions of The Workplace, Health, Safety and Compensation Commission Act, RSNL 1990 Chapter W-11. 29.06 It is agreed and understood by the parties to this Collective Agreement that an employee who is approved for full extended earnings loss (EEL) benefits from the Workplace, Health, Safety and Compensation Commission, after the date of signing of this agreement, shall no longer accumulate benefits under this agreement but shall have his/her position with the employer protected for two (2) calendar years following the date of such approval, immediately following which his/her employment shall be terminated, subject to the Human Rights Act.
