Safety

1. For any serious injury, please initiate care first. 
2. If not an emergency, and once appropriate care is given, report the injury to your supervisor -- this should be done within 72 hours.
3. If needed and available, school nurses can provide injury check-ups and fill out the necessary incident report.

Only employees who work in "extra-hazardous" work conditions, as defined by the State of Wyoming, are covered by Wyoming Worker's Compensation. 

1. To file for worker's compensation, fill out the worker's compensation claim form with your direct supervisor.
2. The form must be filled out and submitted to the Safety Manager within 10 days of an injury. 
3. Any injury that goes beyond first aid and may lead to future chronic medical conditions should be reported.

Crisis information is building specific so employees should touch base with their principal or department head about each building's safety procedures. 

A crisis guide should be readily available in every room of any district building.

The manual linked below provides information related to general health and safety rules, incident prevention programs, equipment and further safety guidelines.

All safety-sensitive positions are required to follow the federal regulations/guidelines in the manual.
