You will want to call and report an incident as soon as possible. This is available 24/7, 365 days a year.  It is recommended you call prior to seeking medical treatment unless the situation is an emergency.  Due to the nature of the questions that will be asked when reporting an injury, it is recommended the employee calls themselves.  If they are unable to report it for any reason, a supervisor or human resources can report the incident on behalf of an employee.
