WorkAction: LWCC's Return-to-Work Program
The key to getting your injured employee back to work is early intervention. LWCC's return-to-work program, WorkAction, capitalizes on the window of opportunity right after an employee is injured to help create a return-to-work plan that works for you. Here's what you can expect.
- Site Visit
A vocational rehabilitation consultant will visit your worksite to analyze the employee's current job and help identify appropriate transitional duty work.
- Job Analysis
The analysis includes a written report as well as photographs of the job being performed. The job analysis is forwarded to the treating physician for review.
- Physician Review
The physician will review the analysis and make a recommendation about the employee's ability to return to work, along with any restrictions.
- Follow Up
LWCC will follow up to help you create a transitional duty plan based on the physician's recommendation.
What Our Return-to-Work Program Can Do For You:
- Faster Recovery
Studies show that employees recover from their injuries three times faster when they're on the job.* LWCC facilitates this process by incorporating work tasks into the physician-approved treatment plan.
-
Higher Productivity
By helping the employee back to work in some capacity, you ensure that productivity doesn't suffer. The ultimate goal is for the employee to return to his pre-injury duties.
-
Happier Employees
By helping employees get back to work, you are helping them maintain their financial security and self-esteem.
-
Lower Costs
Industry data indicates employer return-to-work efforts can result in significant claims cost savings.
