Workers Compensation Policy

Pratt Community College will participate in workers compensation as required by current statute. The Administration shall designate a health care provider for the college (physician, clinic, and/or hospital). Employees will be required to use the designated health care provider as specified. Employees choosing not to use the designated health care provider will be allowed $500.00 for care with a medical provider of their choice. Any expenses incurred in excess of $500.00 with an unauthorized provider will be at the employee’s own expense. The daily allowance, consisting of combined workers’ compensation benefits and salary received under allowed sick leave, or other available leave, shall not exceed one full day’s pay.
