OFFICIAL NOTICE
This business operates under the Georgia Workers' Compensation Law.
WORKERS MUST REPORT ALL ACCIDENTS IMMEDIATELY
TO THE EMPLOYER BY ADVISING THE EMPLOYER PERSONALLY,
AN AGENT, REPRESENTATIVE, BOSS, SUPERVISOR, OR FOREMAN.
If a worker is injured at work, the employer shall pay medical and rehabilitation
expenses within the limits of the law. In some cases the employer will also pay a part of
the worker's lost wages.
Work injuries and occupational diseases should be reported in writing whenever
possible. The worker may lose the right to receive compensation if an accident is not
reported within 30 days (see O.C.G.A. ! 34-9-80).
The employer will supply free of charge, upon request, a form for reporting
accidents and will also furnish, free of charge, information about workers' compensation.
The employer will also furnish to the employee, upon request, copies of board forms on file
with the employer pertaining to an employee's claim.
A worker injured on the job must select a doctor from the list below. The minimum
panel shall consist of at least six physicians, including an orthopedic surgeon with no more
than two physicians from industrial clinics (see O.C.G.A. ! 34-9-201). Further, this panel
shall include one minority physician, whenever feasible (see Rule 201 for definition of
minority physician). The Board may grant exceptions to the required size of the panel
where it is demonstrated that more than four physicians are not reasonably accessible.
One change to another doctor from the list may be made without permission. Further
changes require the permission of the employer or the State Board of Workers'
Compensation.
