Common use of Member’s Responsibilities Clause in Contracts

Member’s Responsibilities. A member must report each service connected injury to his or her immediate supervisor within twenty-four (24) hours of such injury, provided that the member is not incapacitated from making such a report. In the absence of the member's immediate supervisor, the injury may be reported to any on-duty supervisor. The member must complete and submit to the Director of Human Resources an Injury/Accident Report. In addition, the member must pursue a claim for workers' compensation benefits. Should the City require the member to be examined by a qualified physician, other than the member’s own personal physician, for purposes of determining whether injury leave is warranted or, if approved, whether injury leave should be continued, the member shall cooperate by submitting to such an examination and by authorizing the release of appropriate medical reports to the City.
