We try to keep them in their original department and working their usual hours. If there manager does not have any work for them to do then we place them in another department. We have a light duty cost center that they clock into so technically the injured employee is free help to the department.

Thank you

For those of you that do workers comp, how are you handling light or restricted duty.  Do they continue to work in their original department or do you put them in a pool and triage them to light or restricted duties throughout the facility?

 

Thank you.  Have a great day!!
