Get Employees Back to Work with Transitional Duty
|
Transitional duty is important to workers compensation management to avoid the negative consequences that result when employees are out of work for a long time, such as:
- Employees become physically deconditioned and lose marketable employment skills.
- Employees become psychologically "disemployed" and disassociate from their identity as employees.
- Out-of-work employees often become clinically depressed.
- The employee's routine changes to one no longer including a regular daily work routine.
- Indemnity payments increase and claims become more expensive.
- Attorneys become involved.
- Employees are afraid of being re-injured.
The permanency award is likely to be higher.
