Accident & Injury Reporting

Workers’ Compensation Information

All Boise School District employees are covered by Workers’ Compensation insurance. This coverage may provide benefits for lost wages, medical expenses, or, in serious cases, loss of life or dismemberment resulting from a work-related injury or illness.

If an employee is injured on the job, they must report the incident to their supervisor as soon as possible—no later than 24 business hours after the injury occurs.

When medical attention is needed beyond what can be provided at the worksite, employees should seek care from one of the approved Designated Occupational Health Care Providers listed below.

Reporting Work Injuries

Please use the form link below to report all employee work-related injuries. If medical care beyond what can be provided on-site is needed, Human Resources will use the information from this form to complete the First Report of Injury (FROI) and submit it to the State Insurance Fund.

If an employee does not seek medical care at the time the injury is reported but chooses to do so later, please notify Human Resources by emailing benefits@boiseschools.org. Be sure to include:

• The employee’s full name

• The original date of injury

• The name of the Designated Occupational Health Care Provider the employee is visiting

Employee Non-work Injuries

If an employee is injured outside of work and has medical restrictions that prevent them from performing all aspects of their job, they must complete a Return to Work Status Update form before resuming work.

• The employee should meet with their supervisor to complete this form after each update from their healthcare provider, including when they are released to full duty.

• If the employee is absent for 10 or more days due to the same condition, they are required to apply for a leave of absence.
