How does a State employee get reimbursed for repairs to his/her personal vehicle if it is damaged in an accident while on state business?
The “rules” for these circumstances are found in DPA 599.630 (g) and procedure to follow are outlined in the State Administrative Manual (SAM 0757). There are some conditions for reimbursement that the employee should understand. • The accident cannot be the State employee’s fault. • The employee must collect his/her collision/comprehensive coverage first, and then request reimbursement for the deductible amount. • The employee without any collision/comprehensive coverage on their personal vehicle cannot collect anything. Also, the Travel Expense Claim Form (STD 262), completed by the employee, is submitted for payment to his or her own department, NOT to the State Office of Risk and Insurance Management (ORIM).
