Yes, you should immediately notify your employer if you are injured in a car accident while working. Colorado law requires that you report any work-related injury to your employer within four days of the accident, or as soon as reasonably possible. Failing to report the injury within this time frame may jeopardize your ability to obtain workers’ compensation benefits.
