An employee was working a reduced schedule under approved partial Duke Disability, but the employees physician has now requested the employee cease work totally. What should the department do?
The employee must offer a written request from his physician stating the request to stop work. The written request should be faxed to Sonya Stewart in Human Resources at 681-8774 immediately. The disability vendor will adjust the approved Duke Disability benefit amount accordingly. Also, Human Resources will process a payroll form changing the disability from partial to total disability; a copy will be sent to the department for record.
