"First off, as soon as the accident or injury occurs, call 911 if you think the person needs medical attention. Then, the accident or injury has to be reported to the Office of Risk Management within 7 days. There you will fill out a form about the accident, which you will need to have if you're filing a claim for workers compensation. Also make sure to report the accident to your supervisor."
