重返工作(RTW)计划

什么是环球旅行?

The Return to Work program supports employees returning from both occupational (work-related) and non-occupational (not work-related) injuries and illnesses. The goal of RTW is to help injured or ill employees return to work when they are medically able, with or without restrictions, and to their original assignment as soon as they can safely.

If an employee requires restrictions (physical or reduced hours scheduling) in order to return to work, 临时, 修改, transitional assignment opportunities may be made available to assist with a safe return to the workforce.

The University will provide a transitional assignment, 如果可能的话, 最多90个日历日, which is a nationally recognized return to work guideline. Many employees will require many less days to successfully return to their original assignment. Each employee will be evaluated every 30 days to determine if they have been medically cleared by their 治疗提供者 to return to their job or if they are progressing towards the goal of returning to their job within the estimated guideline.

达到或接近90天的, each employee will be reviewed to determine the need for an extension of the transitional assignment for an additional 30 days. Extensions to the 90 day time frame are made on a case by case basis, and will involve the employee’s participation in the interactive process with the Human 资源 Business Partner covering the home 部门, the University Intercessor –Director of 残疾 Compliance, their supervisor/manager and a representative of the RTW program.

Ongoing disability accommodations

If it appears that the need for restrictions may go be ongoing, employees will need to work with their physician to complete the request for disability accommodations form. The University will review the completed request form and will determine what may be a reasonable accommodation.
