N.D. Cent. Code § 65-05-01.4
65-05-01.4. Employer to file first report of notice of injury
65-05-01.4. Employer to file first report of notice of injury
The employer shall file a first report of notice of injury with the organization within seven
days from the date the employer receives the notice of injury from the employee. Failure of the
employer to file a first report of notice of injury is an admission by the employer that the alleged
injury may be compensable. The organization may make or reopen a determination made
without an employer's first report of notice of injury on its own motion pursuant to section
65-05-04 on the grounds determined by the organization to be sufficient.
