Workers’ Compensation
Workers’ compensation benefits are intended to protect employees against a loss of income or employment when they have suffered an on-the-job injury or illness.
- All work-related accidents should be immediately reported to your supervisor.

- If you are absent from work due to your injury or illness, you must notify Milagros Cross, Human Resources Associate, in the Office of Human Resources at (914) 251-5901, m.menendezcross@purchase.edu, and will need to provide ongoing medical documentation during your absence.
