Injuries, incidents, near misses, and known hazards should be reported to an area supervisor and the EHS Department. This includes any injuries or incidents involving faculty, staff, students, or visitors on a TMCC campus or property or off property if it involves TMCC in any capacity. Incidents also include theft, vandalism, property damage, and vehicle accidents.
OSHA requires reporting work-related injuries that result in an in-patient hospital admittance within 24 hours. Injuries resulting from emergency care are to be reported to the employee’s supervisor and the EHS Department as soon as possible.
Medical Care
- Emergency Care: If the individual requires emergency medical attention call 911. An ambulance should transport the injured person to the nearest emergency room.
- Urgent Care: If the individual requires urgent treatment, arrange transportation to the nearest first-stop urgent care. Urgent care treatment can include broken bones, stitches, and other non-emergency care.
- Clinical Care: If the individual requires non-emergency or urgent care, they can schedule an appointment or walk into one of the approved urgent care providers (worker’s compensation/employees only).
A list of approved worker's compensation urgent care providers is located on the BCN Risk Management website.
