Work-related Injury

If you are injured while performing your job

  1. Notify your supervisor immediately. You/your supervisor must then contact the UF Workers' Compensation Office (UFWC) at 392-4940 or SC622-4940. UFWC will complete a First Report of Injury or Illness form for you. Even if you do not think you need medical care, you should contact UFWC to discuss your injury.
  2. If you require medical attention, contact UFWC prior to going to a medical care provider. UFWC staff will assist you in selecting an authorized medical care provider to treat your injury, thereby insuring that you do not incur any expenses.
  3. Remember - You must seek treatment only from an authorized medical provider in all cases except an emergency. If you are uncertain as to what procedures to follow, please contact the UF Workers' Compensation Office for assistance.
