Responsibility of the Employee
All employees are required to report every work-related on-the-job injury or illness to his or her supervisor immediately.
Failure to promptly report a job-related injury is considered grounds for termination. Should an employee seek medical
attention, he or she is required to immediately provide documentation to the supervisor and Risk Management regarding
his or her ability to work. If the employee is unable to personally deliver the treating physician’s status report, it can be
faxed to Attn: Risk Management (918)495-7563 or mailed to Attn: Risk Management, Oral Roberts University 7777 South
Lewis Avenue Tulsa OK 74171.
Employees placed on “no work” status must keep the immediate supervisor and Risk Management informed of absences,
doctor’s appointments and medical progress. If the supervisor and/or Risk Management have not received periodic
updates from the employee accompanied by treating physician documentation, it is the supervisor’s responsibility to
contact the employee. If the employee cannot be reached and has not returned to work, please contact Risk Management
at (918)495-7560. Employee’s returning to work from a “no work” status must provide documentation from the treating
physician regarding his or her ability to return to work.
Any hours missed from work must be reported on Kronos Timekeeping System using pay code WCC, unless otherwise
advised by Risk Management. If you have any questions, please call Risk Management at (918)495-7560.
All documentation should be forwarded to Risk Management.
