ACHIEVING SUCCESS TIPS | | |
The "Employee Brochure"
The Employee Brochure is the first piece of information employees receive about their roles and responsibilities in the Improvement Program.
People may argue providing information encourages employees to file claims but research shows just the opposite - that claim filing is reduced with frequent communication. Communication decreases the number of employees getting an attorney, and keeping employees in the claims process loop shows employees the company treats them fairly.
Include the following in your Employee Brochure:
List the benefits employees can expect to receive under workers compensation.
Discuss the role played by medical providers so employees have a clear understanding of how doctors are used in this process.
Outline a basic action plan to prepare employees to respond correctly to work-related injuries.
Outline what injured employees are entitled to and be sure to deliver those benefits on time.
Write employee brochures at a language level the employees can easily grasp. Translate communication into whatever languages your employees speak.
