Workplace Injury / Illness / Workers' Compensation

The City of Bangor strives to provide a safe and secure work environment for all employees. However, when a work-related injury or illness occurs, employees are required to immediately report their condition to their department supervisor regardless of the severity of the injury or illness. Timely reporting of a workplace injury or illness ensures that unsafe situations or conditions are addressed in a timely manner and that employees receive the appropriate care and treatment without delay. In addition, timely reporting ensures that employees are protected under the Workers' Compensation Laws and that the City is in compliance with state and federal reporting requirements.
