Return To Work Program

Our return to work program will ensure that a swift return to work is achieved while observing physician recommendations, needs of the employee and needs of the employer. We assist individuals who are on Short Term, Long Term, WSIB or other insurance benefits.

The return to work team is typically comprised of the employee, their supervisor, the return to work coordinator, a representative from human resources and a representative from the employee’s union or organization.

Our Return to Work Coordinator will;

• Observe the recommendations made by the physician and return-to-work coordinator in preparation for employees return
• Establish a return to work plan based on these recommendations
• Detail all required accommodations
• Ensure that the return to work plan is followed for the specified time frame
  and that restrictions and limitations are strictly observed
• Ensure strictest confidentiality with respect to any and all information
  relative to the employee’s file/status

The goal is to ensure a safe and early return to work!
