Employment Retention
Having identified that the vast majority of new instructions for
our
occupational service are received more than two years after the accident
or injury occurred, we are conscious that in most instances continuity
with, or confidence in the pre-accident employer has inevitably been
lost. It is a fact that the longer the period of absence, the less
likely a successful return to work.
To target this we have established our employment retention scheme.
It is designed to provide cost effective, early intervention for claimants
currently in employment. The purpose is to provide advice to both
claimant and employer to facilitate a quick return to work. Where
medical issues make this impossible, we will ensure all parties are
aware of the support available to facilitate a return to work, thus
keeping the claimants return
at the forefront of both the employer and claimant’s minds.
Instructions will be accepted for this service only for those claimants
currently in employment.
We aim to provide you with a snapshot as to the claimant’s circumstances,
whilst at the same time assisting the claimant in job retention.
