Hi All:
Bit of clarification to this question: do you require clearance from EHS before RTW after 10 days or do you allow employees to return with their own self-assessment? We want to decrease the volume of phone calls by putting out a decision tree and empowering employees to return without actually speaking with an EHS nurse.
Does anyone know if an actual clearance is required by OSHA, public health, etc? Or have we just gotten in our own way?
