Transitional
work involves the development of a return to work strategy which allows the
injured worker to transition back gradually to their original work responsibilities
and still remain on the job. A Transitional Work Program can eliminate lost
work time or at least decrease lost work time by providing rehabilitation opportunities
at the work site. Early return to work benefits the employee and the employer.
There are four major components of a successful Transitional Work Program.
They include:
- Have the Program Designed by a Certified Transitional Work Developer
- Write Appropriate Human Resource Policies to Support the Safe and Early
Return of Injured Workers
- Develop a Series of Work Responsibilities Which Allow the Injured Worker
to Safely Return to Original Work Responsibilities
- Identify and Monitor Outcomes to Ensure the Program Works Correctly
Let WORC put the pieces together for you.
