Workers’ Compensation is insurance that provides partial wages and/or medical care for Syracuse University employees who are injured or become ill as a direct result of their job.  All Syracuse University employees (including full time, part time, temporary and student employment) who are receiving a university paycheck are covered under Workers’ Compensation.

Syracuse University is self-insured and self-administered for workers’ compensation benefits.  All Workers’ Compensation benefits are paid with University funds and administered by the Risk Management Department.
