Once you have moved, there are certain steps that must be taken to ensure that the City and your benefit providers know how to get in contact with you.
Employees must notify their supervisors of this change AND human resources.
Police or Fire Department employees must see the Chief's admin and request the "Change of Address Packet". Once that is completed, turn that back into the Admin and they will submit the packet to Human Resources.
If you have moved and are no longer employed with the City, we'll need the corrected address for W-2's. We will need that change in writing.

Regardless of whether or not you choose to go to the doctor, your Supervisor must be informed of the incident immediately. If you feel that you do not need a doctor immediately, that is fine. If, down the road, you feel that you should probably go see a doctor because there is still an issue, notify your Supervisor and then Human Resources. HR will take care of making you an appointment. After leaving the doctor's office, you must visit Human Resources to complete the proper Worker's Compensation paperwork.Human Resources
