5.04 Workers Compensation

McPherson College complies with state laws requiring Workers’ Compensation coverage. In the event an employee incurs an injury covered by Workers’ Compensation, the amount of benefits payable and the duration of payment depend upon the nature of the injury or illness. If an employee is injured or has a work-related illness while on the job, they must immediately report the injury/illness to their supervisor and the human resource department so the College can assist the employee in contacting the Workers’ Compensation insurance carrier.
