§ 2-185. Workers' compensation.  


Latest version.
  • (a)

    As required by law, the county participates in a workers' compensation program. There is no cost to the employee.

    (b)

    In cases of certified, on-the-job injuries, the program pays hospital and doctor bills and a weekly cash benefit if the employee is disabled. To be certain that employees qualify for workers' compensation, they must report any on-the-job accident immediately to their supervisors or department directors.
