Return-To-Work (RTW)
Helping an injured worker return to work as soon as it is safe to do so promotes faster and fuller recovery, as recognized by the Canadian Medical Association and the American Medical Association.
But early and safe Return-To-Work benefits everyone. And having a program in place before anyone gets injured makes successful RTW more likely.
A Return-To-Work program allows employers and workers to take a proactive approach in assisting injured workers to return to safe and productive work activities as soon a possible after an injury.
