GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS TO THE EMPLOYER
Employers, not employees, are responsible for completing this form. The information is needed to determine liability and entitlement
to benefits. You must file this form with your insurer, and give a copy to the employee and the employee’s local union office. You are
required to provide the employee with a copy of the Employee Information Sheet, which is available on the Department of Labor and
Industry’s web site at
Filing this form is not an admission of liability. You must report a claim to your insurer whenever anyone believes that a work-
related injury or illness that requires medical care or where lost time from work has occurred. If the claimed injury wholly or partially
incapacitates the employee for more than three calendar days, the claim must be made on this form and reported to your insurer within
ten days. Your insurer may require you to file it sooner. Failure to file within the ten days may result in penalties. It is important to file
this form quickly to allow your insurer time to investigate the claim. Your insurer will report the injury to the Department of Labor and
Industry (Department), when necessary. Self-insured employers have 14 days to report the injury to the Department, when necessary.
If the claim involves death or serious injury (including injuries that later result in death), you must notify the Department and
your insurer within 48 hours of the occurrence. The claim can be reported initially to the Department by telephone (651-284-5041), fax
(651-284-5731), or personal notice. The initial notice must be followed by the filing of this form with the Department within seven days
of the occurrence, at P.O. Box 64221, St. Paul, MN 55164-0221.
SEND THIS FORM TO YOUR INSURER IMMEDIATELY – DO NOT WAIT FOR THE DOCTOR’S REPORT
