Did you know that you could be denied both medical and income benefits if you fail to report your work accident within 30 days of its occurrence? There are situations where a failure to report the injury will not preclude an injured worker from recovering such benefits, but the key thing to remember is that it is very important to report your injury to your employer as soon as possible so as to avoid any future complications from the failure to do so.
Tip: While the notice doesn't necessarily have to be in writing, and even if your supervisor tells you to work through it, it is typically a good practice to document your complaint for future reference.
