As a condition of employment, all employees are required to enroll in direct deposit and remain enrolled in direct deposit for the tenure of employment.
All new hires will be required to enroll in direct deposit at the time of hire.
Once enrolled in direct deposit, an employee’s first paycheck will require a “pre-note” with their bank. Therefore, direct deposit will not be effective until the second paycheck after signing up for direct deposit. Employees with a district e-mail address will receive their direct deposit advice via e-mail. All others will be delivered to their site or mailed to their home address.
For those employees unable to obtain a bank account, employees shall contact the Payroll department for assistance. Adopted 12/12/11

individual with a felony conviction, Union Public Schools (“Union”)
requires a criminal background check for purposes of making
employment decisions.
I,
, give Union Public Schools permission
to run a background check to obtain criminal information relating to me
(if any) and/or to hire a reporting agency to run a background check to
obtain criminal information relating to me (if any) contained in public
records. Neither Union Public Schools or its agent(s) will be violating
my right to privacy by conducting this background check, and I hereby
release them from all liability whatsoever for actions related to this
investigation. I further acknowledge that, if I am hired by Union, I may
be subject to additional background checks pursuant to an annual
random selection process for criminal history checks of ongoing Union
employees, and I grant permission for these additional background
checks.

Employee's Responsibilities In Case of Work Related Injury
If accidentally injured or affected by cumulative trauma or an occupational disease arising out of and in the course of employment, however slight, the employee should notify the employer immediately. If this employer is a partnership, notice shall be given to any partner. If this employer is a corporation, notice shall be given to any agent or officer of the corporation upon whom legal process may be served. Notice shall also be given to the person in charge of business at the location of operations where the injury occurred. Unless oral or written notice is given to the employer within thirty (30) days, the claim for compensation may be forever barred.
The employee may file a claim for compensation with the WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION for an accidental injury, death, cumulative trauma or occupational disease or illness occurring ON OR AFTER February 1, 2014. Forms to file a compensation claim should be furnished by this employer and also are available from the Workers’ Compensation Commission. The forms are posted on the Commission’s website, www.wcc.ok.gov.
A claim for compensation must be filed with the Commission within the time specified by law, or be forever barred. Based on law effective February 1, 2014, a claim for compensation for any accidental injury or death must be filed with the Commission within one (1) year of the date of injury or death; a claim for compensation for occupational disease or illness must be filed within two (2) years of the last injurious exposure; and a claim for compensation for cumulative trauma must be filed within one (1) year of the date of injury. A claim for additional compensation is barred unless filed within one (1) year of the last payment of disability compensation or two (2) years from the date of injury, whichever is longer.
Claims for compensation for accidental injury, death, cumulative trauma or occupational disease or illness occurring BEFORE February 1, 2014 may be filed with the WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COURT OF EXISTING CLAIMS and are subject to different notice of injury requirements and claims filing deadlines than those for accidental injury, death, cumulative trauma or occupational disease or illness occurring on or after February 1, 2014. Failure to comply with applicable notice requirements and deadlines may operate to forever bar the claim. Contact the Commission’s Counselor Division for additional information.
Employer's Responsibilities
The employer must provide employees with immediate first aid, medical, surgical, hospital, optometric, podiatric, and nursing services, medicine, crutches and other apparatus as may be reasonably necessary in connection with the injury received by the employee. This applies to care for all injuries and illnesses arising out of and in the course of employment, regardless of their character. Within ten (10) days after the date of receipt of notice or knowledge of death or injury that results in more than three days’ absence from work for the injured employee, the employer MUST send a report thereof to the Workers’ Compensation Commission on a CC-Form 2, and also send a copy of the CC-Form 2 to the employer’s insurance carrier, if any, within the ten-day period.
No agreement by any employee to pay any portion of the premium paid by the employer to a carrier or a benefit fund or department maintained by the employer for the purpose of providing compensation or medical services and supplies as required by the workers’ compensation laws, shall be valid. Any employer who makes a deduction for such purposes from the pay of any employee entitled to benefits under the workers’ compensation laws shall be guilty of a misdemeanor.
No agreement by any employee to waive workers' compensation rights and benefits shall be valid. Any person who commits workers' compensation fraud, upon conviction, shall be guilty of a felony
punishable by imprisonment, a fine or both.

If, after going to Union Public Schools’ required facility/doctor for a work-related injury, you are unsatisfied with the treatment, you may have a right to appeal to the Oklahoma Workers’ Compensation Commission which could allow for one change of physician. Also, if you have notified your supervisor of your injury, and you are not offered medical treatment by Union Schools within five days, you could choose one doctor/facility other than the one required by Union Schools. However, this option only applies if you did notify your supervisor, and then,after you notified your supervisor, five days went by without Union Schools offering you medical treatment.
Explanation of Required Provider of Medical Treatment for Work-Related
Injury
As an employee of Union Public Schools, if you experience a work-related injury, you are responsible for immediately reporting that injury to your supervisor. Workers’ Compensation laws in Oklahoma have recently changed regarding medical treatment for work-related injuries. As always, if you are injured at work, you must notify your supervisor immediately (as soon as you know you have an injury). You will be required to go to the medical facility/doctor that has been designated by Union Public Schools as the provider of medical services for work-related injuries (see attachment), and you do not, by law, have the choice of going to your own physician at the time of the injury.*
Union Public Schools has a Certified Workplace Medical Plan through WorkNet of Oklahoma, and you are required to go to the medical facility listed on the
attachment.* (The specific facility utilized will depend on the hour of day you are seeking treatment per the attachment).
If you go to your own doctor for a work-related injury, your medical treatment will likely be disqualified for payment under workers’ compensation.* You (or your own personal health insurance) would be responsible for bill for treatment anywhere other than at the required medical facility (as per the attachment).
• For an emergency work injury, an ambulance would be called, and the
facility to which you were taken for treatment would be paid under workers’ compensation.
By my signature, I acknowledge that I understand if I am injured at work at Union Public Schools, I am required to report this injury immediately to my supervisor, and I am required to go for treatment at the facility/facilities designated in the attachment. I acknowledge that I have noted the exceptions below. I am also signifying by my signature that I did receive a copy of this agreement and also a copy of the attachment designating the required facilities. I understand a copy of this document will be kept in the District’s file of WorkNet acknowledgements.

To: Applicants for Positions* at Union Public Schools Re: Notice Regarding Required National Criminal Record Check(s) and Post Offer/Pre‐Employment Drug Testing Thank you very much for your interest in working for Union Public Schools. As required by Oklahoma State law for all school districts, any applicant who is ultimately recommended to be hired for a position with the Union Public School District (the District), will be required to be fingerprinted for a national criminal record search to be conducted through the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI) system. Additionally, it is a District requirement that any applicant who receives a contingent offer of employment from the District must take and pass a drug test. If you are recommended by the hiring administrator for a position at the District, a staff member in the Human Resources (HR) Department will contact you to give you specifics of the fingerprinting and drug testing process and to set a time for your HR interview/new hire paperwork session. The fingerprint process will require you to take a letter from the District to the Sherriff’s office for your electronic fingerprints. You will be given specific instructions regarding this process (along with a map and directions to the Sherriff’s office). You must bring your driver’s license or state‐issued ID card with you for your fingerprinting session. The District will forward your fingerprint card to the State Department of Education for an OSBI criminal record search. Additionally, a criminal record search will be done through a private criminal record search provider. Information from either of the criminal record checks run by the District may disqualify you from employment with the District. You will not be required to pay any of the cost for the fingerprinting or for the national criminal record searches.* For the drug testing process, after receiving a contingent offer of employment you will be instructed to take a form (provided by HR) to the drug testing facility utilized by the District. You will be given a copy of the District’s drug testing policy at the same time you pick up your drug test form and your fingerprint information. There will be a time frame within which you must complete your drug test (within one hour of receiving the drug testing form). You will be provided directions to the drug testing facility where your form will be “stamped” by the facility to verify you took your drug test within the required time frame. You will not be required to pay any of the cost of the drug test. You must bring the “stamped” drug test form (verifying you took your drug test) and your completed fingerprint card back to the HR Department at the time HR will schedule for your new hire paperwork appointment. You will not be eligible to be hired by the District until you have provided your fingerprint card for the required OSBI criminal record search, brought back your stamped drug test form, and met all other requirements communicated to you by the HR Department. A drug test result that is positive for illegal substances or positive for certain drugs for which the individual has no prescription, will disqualify the candidate from employment with Union Public Schools. If you are ultimately hired by the District, you will be hired for up to 60 days pending the results of your national criminal record checks. If, during that 60 day period, the District receives any information from the results of the national criminal record searches that disqualifies you from employment with the District (or if the District receives disqualifying drug test results after you have begun employment), your employment will be terminated. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in meeting requirements that assure appropriate hiring for public schools. Thank you again for your interest in working for the Union Public School District. *If applying for a position as a substitute teacher, a fee applies for participating in the Substitute Workshop.
