Benefits — Section 7 WORKERS' COMPENSATION All Earlham employees are covered by Workers' Compensation
insurance for all injuries while at work. Earlham endeavors to provide
safe and healthful conditions in which to work. In addition to obtaining
prompt medical attention, details of any job-related injury must be
reported to the Business Office as soon as possible, both for Worker's
Compensation purposes as well as the record keeping requirements of
the Occupational Safety and Health Act. If an employee is injured
in the course of his/her work, the employee is eligible for lost-wage
compensation and In the event that an employee is disabled and receiving Workman's Compensation Benefits, Earlham will continue to pay the employer portion of the employee's group health insurance premium and the life insurance premium. While receiving Workers Compensation benefits, all de minimus fringe benefits and Tuition Remission at Earlham continue but only the health insurance and group life insurance paid benefits are continued as described above. Earlham will also bill employees who wish to extend their dependent health care coverage while receiving Workers’ Compensation benefits. If at any time, the employee’s dependent coverage premium payments are more than 30 days past due, Earlham’s health care coverage will cease and COBRA coverage will be extended to the dependent. In the event that the employee is no longer eligible for workers compensation benefits and does not return to employment at Earlham, then health care coverage will continue at the employee’s expense under COBRA. The employee must contact the Business Office to make arrangements for these billing procedures. |
