An injured employee or student must report any accident where medical attention and/or first aid is required, or whenever any apparent bodily injury was received by the injured. All employees must complete a form CS-13 Employee Report of Accident or Injury, within 3 days after the date of the incident. Retain a copy for your files. Forward the original to your supervisor who will complete their portion. Supervisors are to forward the original to Human Resources, with a copy going to the Environmental Health and Safety Office (EH&S).
