Important: Employers by law must report to L&I the death or in-patient hospitalization of any worker (within 8 hours) and any non-hospitalized amputation or loss of eye (within 24 hours) due to an on-the-job injury by calling 1-80. If further treatment is necessary, send your worker to the emergency room or health care provider of their choice and make sure they tell the doctor they were injured at work.
All employers in Washington are required to provide a first-aid kit. Many falls, cuts, and sprains can become serious injuries if they aren’t treated. Make sure you have first aid available at your workplace
