What to Do If You Have Been Injured at Work
If you have been injured at work, start taking care of it by getting immediate medical help if you need it. Make sure to promptly report the injury to your manager, supervisor or employer and ensure a First Report of Injury (FROI) is filed by your employer with the Bureau of Workers’ Compensation. It can also be helpful to get the contact information of anyone who witnessed your injury and take photos of the injury site as well as your injuries. Start gathering documentation.
If your employer has posted a list of at least six approved health providers in a public place in the work area for workers’ compensation, you must select a provider from this list for treatment. You can choose any doctor on the list for the first 90 days of treatment. During those first 90 days, you may also change providers to another doctor on the list.
If there is no list in the workplace or the list does not have at least six doctors, you may seek treatment from any doctor you like. After 90 days of treatment, you can also choose a provider of your own selection.
