Worker's Compensation Return to Work & Pay As You Go
By: Rob Lynn
Return-to-work programs are only effective if they are implemented with the support of all levels of management. As with all programs that impact employees, they are much more successful when one allows the frontline employees to assist in the development of the overall return-to work plan.
Six Essential Components to be considered before an injury occurs:
-
Create a written return-to-work policy.
-
Review the policy with new employees during their orientation or with existing employees during their annual review.
-
Write a detailed job evaluation that identifies the specific tasks and physical demands associated with each job within the company.
-
Create a detailed job description for every position.
-
Establish a working relationship with a walk-in clinic or occupational medical center.
-
Assign a specific person in your organization that will be responsible for administering the return-to-work program. This person should have a thorough knowledge of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and the Workers’ Compensation Statutes.
