Family Medical Leave
If your doctor has determined that you are medically disabled and unable to perform your job for a period of five (5) days or more, you are required to apply for a University leave. The reason for this is that some leaves give you certain rights not covered by a workers' compensation claim, like job protection under the Family and Medical Leave. To apply for a leave, contact the Human Resources Leave Coordinator, Bunnie Sylve at 504-247-1717 or bsylve2@tulane.edu.
Student Worker
If a student worker is injured while working, then follow the same steps as you would for employees. Student workers will be covered as an employee.
Modified Duty
If an employee is placed on modified duty by their physician, notify Workers' Compensation at workcomp@tulane.edu.
Out of Work
If an employee is placed out of work by their physician, notify Workers' Compensation at workcomp@tulane.edu.
