Return to Work
Keep in Touch With Your Employer
Open communication paves the way for a successful return to work. You have an obligation to keep in touch with your employer and advise them of any changes in your condition.
Return-To-Work Scenarios
Your employer will make every effort to bring you back to work as soon as possible and make reasonable accommodation for your return. You, in turn, must accept work that you are physically able to do.
Possible scenarios
- Back to work as usual
You completely recover from your injury and return to your job. - Modified work
Your return to work requires modifications to the job you previously performed. - Transitional work
When physical restrictions are more severe, your employer may temporarily place you in an alternate position until you regain abilities. - New job
Unfortunately, there are some cases in which, despite all efforts, your employer will not have work to accommodate you. If this happens to you, please contact your claim specialist.
