Workers' Compensation is a mandatory insurance program that provides benefits to employees who are injured arising out of and in the course of employment. The City is approved by the Industrial Commission of Arizona (ICA) to self-insure for its Workers' Compensation program. The City contracts with a Third Party Administrator (TPA) to administer the claims in accordance with the State of Arizona Workers' Compensation Laws. 

Workers' Compensation coverage begins on the first day of employment. Regular, Temporary Personnel and Volunteers are covered by the City's self-insurance workers' compensation program. 

It is the employee's responsibility to immediately report an injury or illness to your supervisor. Please check out the Workers' Compensation Flowchart for a quick overview of the process.

Please be sure to check out our Workers' Compensation Program Guide as a tool to help you understand the Workers' Compensation Process. The guide offers you links to the City's Occupational Health Clinics, Flowchart of the Workers' Compensation Process, as well as many more pieces of information regarding the entire process.
