Workers Compensation/Safety
Worker's Compensation
If you sustain an injury due to an accident or assault, report your injury by calling the Travelers Hotline (TravCare) 1-888-729-4189. Travelers is MMSD’s worker’s compensation program administrator.
When calling the hotline, you will talk with a triage nurse who will help you determine next steps for seeking care or treatment for your injury and next steps to file a claim. If you believe your injury is a life- or limb-threatening emergency, call 9-1-1.
When seeking medical care for your injury, please notify the check-in attendant that the injury is a workers compensation-related injury.
Before or upon returning to work, notify your supervisor of any restrictions or updates and email the Worker’s Compensation Department at workcomp@madison.k12.wi.us or fax to (608) 204-0346 with the information about the date and nature of the injury and your return to work date.
The Workers Compensation Department will receive your claim from Travelers and may email you asking for additional information or updates on your current condition. Please respond to the email as promptly as possible so we can ensure your claim is processed properly. Your case manager will work with you throughout the duration of your claim until it is closed.
If you would like assistance reaching your case manager, you can email workcomp@madison.k12.wi.us.
Please note supervisors and principals are required to complete the appropriate accident or assault form on the Guardian Website when an employee injury occurs.
