Worker's Compensation Leave

Purdue University provides worker’s compensation benefits to eligible employees as required by the Indiana Worker’s Compensation Act and the Occupational Diseases Act (jointly “the Act”). Generally, under the Act, an injured employee is eligible to receive weekly wage replacement benefits (temporary total disability benefits), medical benefits, and benefits for any permanent partial impairment or permanent total disability caused by a work-related injury or illness. Details on University policies and regulations relating to worker’s compensation are included in University Policy IV.10.2, dated April 15, 2005.

Exhaustion of Leave

An employee who has exhausted all available paid sick leave may be terminated. Additionally, an employee who has exhausted FMLA and/or unpaid leave options may be terminated.
