Benefits - Early Return to Work Program
Chancellor & Chancellor, Inc. is enrolled in the alliance plan with Kaiser Permanente Occupational Medicine facilities and State Compensation Insurance Fund for the treatment of all work-related injuries.
If an employee is injured at work, he/she is required to report the injury to their supervisor immediately. If medical treatment is necessary and the employee has not designated a treating physician, he/she must go to a Kaiser Occupational Medical Clinic.
The employee must then complete the Employee's Claim for Workers' Compensation Benefits as soon after an accident as possible.
If the employee is unable to return to the regular position due to a workplace injury, he/she will discuss with the doctor the possibility of working in a light duty job until the doctor releases the employee for full duty. If the doctor releases the employee for light duty, the supervisor will be notified the same day.
Modified jobs will be identified after obtaining the injured employee's physical restrictions. "Modified" might be the employee's regular job, modified by removing heavier tasks and reassigning these to other employees; a different regular job currently existing at the workplace; or a job which is specifically designed around the employee's restrictions. A modified job offer will be made only when the work is available and of benefit to the company. Part-time work will be considered as modified work, if medically indicated. Each case will be assessed individually based on need. Modified work may not be implemented in every time loss claim. Wages will not necessarily be the same as that of the regular job.
If the employee has taken off work completely, or if light duty work is unavailable, he/she must report their medical condition and progress to the supervisor at least once a week.
