DISABILITY INSURANCE PROGRAM
- Return to Work during Short Term Disability
The RTW Coordinator (RTW-C) is available to assist you during your transition back to work from your approved Short Term Disability.
The RTW-C can assist you:
- In developing a Return to Work plan with you and your employer should you be returning with temporary restrictions or limitations
- In acquiring Assistive Technology should you need it to perform the essential functions of your job
- Return to Work Authorizations are also available by contacting the RTW-C which can be sent directly to your physician
It’s important to remember that being in contact with the RTW-C is not a substitute for maintaining contact with your agency/supervisor during your absence from work. Returning to work often takes collaborative efforts that include you, your physician, your employer and the RTW-C.
