Time and Attendance Information for Employees Injured at Work

An employee must report, to his or her supervisor, any time that the employee must spend away from work because of an injury or illness that occurred at work. The employee should complete a time and attendance (T&A) leave slip to cover the absence from work and submit it to his or her supervisor. The time should be marked as Injury Leave and will be coded in the T&A system as “LI–Job-Related Injury.” The absence will be paid after it has been verified and approved by Liberty Mutual.

Medical and physical therapy appointments related to the injury or illness require advance notice to one’s supervisor and documentation from a medical provider before completing and submitting a leave slip. Employees should schedule medical and physical therapy appointments for before or after work hours when medically possible.

When an employee returns to work, any change in work schedule should be discussed with the employee’s supervisor and his or her Liberty Mutual case manager.

For questions and more information, contact your Liberty Mutual case manager at 800-752-5832 or the Office of Benefit Services at 571-423-3200. You may also send an e-mail message to workerscompensation@fcps.edu.
