Return-To-Work Strategies
Learn Key Return-To-Work Strategies

Employers want employees to return to work from their occupational injuries in the least amount of time away from work.

Studies show that the employee will more likely make a full recovery and continue working a long and productive work life if they return to duty in the least amount of time, but returning to work often carries with it restrictions, disabilities, obligations, and frustrations (on both sides).

Such situations require careful assessments and knowledge of all the elements necessary to fit together what often seems like a complicated puzzle. Leaving out an assessment of employer obligations of just one piece of such a puzzle can have serious ramifications. And that's where this training session can help!

Learning Objectives: Return-To-Work Strategies

Learn how to have an organized, simple, and documented assessment process to accommodate returning employees to work who have not fully recovered from occupational injuries.

By attending this training session, you will learn key return to work / return to duty strategies. Specifically:

  • How the ADA interacts with WC injuries
  • How to structure an ADA accommodation conversation
  • Key differences between occupational vs non occupational injuries
  • Why light duty is not FMLA
  • Do you have to "make" a job?
  • Keeping the employee from reinjuring or exacerbating their injury
  • Why FMLA reduced schedule or intermittent leave should be part of your WC program
  • Other FMLA issues you have to consider
  • How do state leave rules fit in?
  • Short term accommodations vs. long term job restructuring

Cannot Attend The Live Presentation?

This presentation is also available in a recorded format, in On-Demand version, as shown in the pricing options below.

About Webcasts / Audio Conferences / Podcasts:Webcasts, audio conferences, and podcasts are presentations that you attend via the Internet, phone, or mobile device at a specified date and time for "live" versions, or at your convenience for "recorded" and "On-Demand" versions.

The live versions are interactive, meaning that participants can ask questions in real time, plus are a very cost-effective form of training because 1) you receive fast, convenient learning without any out-of-office time; 2) you can invite as many colleagues as you'd like to listen in on a single phone line; 3) you incur no travel expenses; and 4) you and your colleagues are back at work immediately after the session ends!

And though with recorded versions you do lose the ability to ask questions, you gain the ability to hear the presentation numerous times and to share it with others in your office.

Handout materials and the phone number for live presentations are made available to you prior to the event via email from the presenter and from the "MyAccount" link on the menu bar. Copies of the presentations are included with recorded versions.
