First Report of Workplace Injury (FROI)

Employees should report work-related injuries to their supervisor or other person designated by your department as soon as possible but no later than one business day after an injury. (Injured employees should not complete this form.)


Supervisors or designated staff must report all work-related injuries to the Office of Compliance and Risk Management (OCRM) using the online reporting form at the link below on the same business day notification of an injury is received. Reporting a work-related injury also starts the Worker's Compensation claims process with Human Resource Management (HRM).


If there is an accident, illness, or injury that results in or may result in death, serious injury, or injury that requires hospitalization, the incident must be reported by telephone immediately to OCRM at 662-325-6280.



DO NOT DELAY REPORTING - If any information requested on this form is unknown at the time of reporting, it can be provided at a later date. Only the items marked with an (*) are required for initial reports.
