All student hourly employees (both part-time and Work-Study) working at on- or off-campus sites are considered to be University of Iowa employees and, as such, are covered under the university's Workers' Compensation policy. When faced with a workers' compensation situation, the most important thing to know is where the employee must seek treatment in order to receive coverage.

If you're a student employee injured on the job, do not go to Student Health—you will be charged for treatment.

For all work injuries/accidents, student employees must receive medical care from the following treatment location:

• UI Occupational Health, 2591 Holiday Road, Coraville, Monday through Friday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., 319-356-3335

Employees in the Iowa City area should use the University of Iowa Hospital and Clinics Emergency Room for emergencies and/or treatment during non-clinic hours.
