I should add that EHS is not in the same department as Occupational and Employee Health.

Hello everyone

I would like to inquire how your EHS does handles one of the team members in EHS who requires a RTW evaluation or has an injury. Are they seen in your department by the “co-worker” provider or do you have an alternate provider?

Lately we have had “sensitive” RTW issues with a couple of employees and feel that it is not appropriate for them to be seen by co-workers in the same department.

Your thoughts and procedures are appreciated.

Thanks,

Phil
