Workers' Compensation
In Case Of an Injury
In the event of a workplace injury, the first priority must be to seek medical treatment for the injured employee, if needed. All incidents of work place injury must be reported to the Office of Human Resources as soon as possible.
In an emergency, the employee should be referred to the nearest hospital or emergency room. Contact Campus Police if an ambulance is needed.
For non-emergency injuries, please contact the Office of Human Resources; the employee will be referred to a first responder as noted on the appropriate Medical Care Authorization Form:
- Medical Care Authorization Form - Tahlequah
- Medical Care Authorization Form - Muskogee
- Medical Care Authorization Form - Broken Arrow
- All employees who suffer a workplace injury should be provided a copy of Information for Injured Workers (PDF)
Effective November 15, 2011, employees who suffer a workplace injury will be subject to post-accident testing under the University Workplace Drug Testing Policy.
