Overview

When one of your employees gets injured on the job, what is your plan? How can you ensure that employee returns to work happy, healthy, and productive as quickly as possible? Can you afford to replace that individual should they never return to their job?

In this webinar, we will discuss the fundamentals of an effective injury management process, from the moment an employee is hired through them returning to their full job after an injury.

Kevin Ring, MWCA will discuss how to introduce employees to how workers' compensation works BEFORE an employee suffers an injury. We will discuss what relationships and resources your business needs to have in place and how to take advantage of those to be sure an injured employee returns to work as quickly as possible.

Everyone involved in workers' comp knows about "Return to Work", but it is often left up to the employer to figure out how to make it happen. Kevin will lay out the concepts that underpin effective Recovery-at-Work and how to build a program that works in your business.

Return to Work has always been important, but with the labor shortage at historic levels, being sure you don’t lose a good employee because of a workplace injury is more important than ever.

The strategies and tactics covered in this webinar can reduce the involvement of injury attorneys in your workers' compensation program, eliminating unnecessary costs and preventing you from having an adversarial relationship with your injured employee.

We will also be discussing a key component of injury prevention that is often left out of the conversation: The hiring process. Kevin will cover an attorney approved hiring process that prevent you hiring someone that is not capable of doing the job you need them to do.
