Im concerned about causing a re-injury by bringing an injured employee back too soon, or by placing him or her in the wrong job. What can I do?
Physical work restrictions will be decided by the doctor. The injured worker should present his/her employer with a return-to-work slip from the treating physician, which will outline these physical restrictions. Your Zenith team is available to help you develop a return-to-work plan which may include temporary or transitional work assignments until the employee is ready to resume his/her pre-injury duties.
