text: If you have been injured on the job you must report it to your supervisor.  Workman's Comp will take over from there.  But be aware, down the road if you apply for a job and that company does a background check it will show up.  They will ask you about it.  If you have 6 or 8 of them they will probably not hire you.  Policies vary from company to company.  If you are honest about it on your application/interview you shouldn't have to worry about it.  Good Luck!
