Obtaining Accident Leave

An injured employee who has received an SEH physician’s recommendation to stay off work will do so on conditional "accident leave" until a determination as to the compensability of the accident is made by IWIF and the employee is deemed "eligible" by the University.

The University’s Workers Compensation insurance administrator, IWIF, will determine if the accident is compensable and that the employee is entitled to Accident Leave. If Accident Leave is authorized, The employee must give to their supervisor a completed and signed copy of the Medical Services issued by SEH. The form must clearly state that the employee is authorized to be off work due to the injury. The employee must also be "eligible" in accordance with Human Resources Management policies and procedures.
