BENEFITS OF WORKACTION
Our passion for supporting injured workers goes a long way
Faster Recovery
Research shows that employees recover from their injuries faster when they are on the job, even in a modified or light-duty capacity. LWCC facilitates this process by incorporating work tasks into the physician-approved treatment plan.
Higher Productivity
By helping the employee back to work in some capacity, you ensure that productivity doesn’t suffer. The ultimate goal is for the employee to return to their pre-injury duties.
Happier Employees
By helping employees get back to work, you are helping them maintain their financial security and self-esteem.
Lower Costs
Industry data indicates employer return-to-work efforts can result in significant claims cost savings.
WORKACTION PROCESS
The Program In Action
Vocational rehabilitation specialists help injured employees get back to work by providing on-site job analysis and recommend modified or transitional duty alternatives to ease the injured employee back into the workforce.
Site Visit
A vocational rehabilitation consultant will visit your worksite to analyze the employee’s current job and help identify appropriate transitional duty work.
Job Analysis
The analysis includes a written report, as well as photographs of the job being performed. The job analysis is forwarded to the treating physician for review.
Physician Review
The physician will review the analysis and make a recommendation about the employee’s ability to return to work, along with any restrictions.
Follow Up
LWCC will follow up to help you create a transitional duty plan based on the physician’s recommendation.
