Common use of ON-THE-JOB INJURY OR ILLNESS Clause in Contracts

ON-THE-JOB INJURY OR ILLNESS. A. The Agency will take appropriate action to secure emergency treatment for an employee during duty hours for job and non-job-related injuries or illnesses, if the employee's condition is such that they cannot arrange treatment for themselves. Employees shall report to their supervisor all injuries or occupational illnesses that occur on the job, and the information will be entered into the Agency’s electronic reporting system. Management will provide assistance in case the employee is unable to do this. This requirement in no way affects the employee’s rights and benefits under Office of Workers’ Compensation Programs (OWCP) regulations. Management shall expeditiously process and forward to OWCP all documentation that is required by OWCP within the Agency’s control when an employee sustains an on-the-job injury or contracts an occupational disease. Upon request, copies will be provided to the employee or the personal representative designated in writing by the employee. Management agrees to provide employees with assistance in processing claims under the Federal Employees Compensation Act.
