Purpose and Scope<\/strong><br \/>\nThe health, well-being, and safety of all employees is of great importance to ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ State<br \/>\nUniversity. Therefore, it is the purpose of the University to establish a Transitional Return-to-<br \/>\nWork Policy and make a reasonable effort to return to the workplace those employees of the<br \/>\nUniversity who have sustained job-related injuries or illness.<\/p>\n<p>ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ State seeks to provide a Transitional Return to Work Program which will implement a<br \/>\nsafe transitional return to work, with the goal of reducing the duration of time needed to<br \/>\ntransition back into full duty, retain valuable employee skills and physical conditioning, reduce<br \/>\nworkers compensation claims, cost, and overall facilitate a safer working environment for all<br \/>\nemployees.<\/p>\n<p>A Transitional Return to Work Team has been developed as part of this program to assist in the<br \/>\nimplementation of any job-related return to work through transitional duty. This team will, at a<br \/>\nminimum, consist of the following individuals: Human Resources Director (Return to Work<br \/>\nCoordinator), Director of EH&amp;S and EOC, HR Compliance Specialist, and Employee\u2019s<br \/>\nSupervisor.<\/p>\n<p><strong>II. Policy<\/strong><br \/>\nTransitional return to work duty is modified duty\/light duty which allows a worker to return<br \/>\nto duty early, within the physical restrictions determined by a physician or other qualified<br \/>\nprovider, and the constraints of job duties and tasks, until the worker is capable of returning to<br \/>\nfull duty. The transitional return to work program is based on medical prognosis and recovery.<\/p>\n<p>Transitional duty as part of the Transitional Return to Work Program is offered for the length<br \/>\ncertified by a physician or other qualified provider but may not extend for longer than one year.<br \/>\nClassified employees&#8217; transitional duty is limited to six months and a request for additional<br \/>\ntime, up to the one-year limit, must be made to the Director of Civil Service.<\/p>\n<p>ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ State does not guarantee placement in the Transitional Return to Work Program and<br \/>\nthis program shall not be construed as a contract for such placement or an obligation to offer,<br \/>\ncreate, or encumber any specific position for the sole purpose of returning an employee to<br \/>\ntransitional duty.<\/p>\n<p>This program is not intended to interfere with the procedure applicable to employees who are<br \/>\notherwise eligible for reasonable accommodation under the Americans with Disabilities Act<br \/>\n(ADA). In a case where an employee refuses an accommodation or reassignment to duties,<br \/>\nwhich is within their restrictions and ability to perform, the university is not obligated to<br \/>\nprovide further alternatives. If all efforts fail to \u201creturn the employee to work,\u201d it may be<br \/>\nnecessary to terminate the individual.<\/p>\n<p>The University will hold a return to work meeting with the employee to review the plan before<br \/>\nthe employee returns to work. Once the meeting has taken place, an offer of transitional duty<br \/>\nemployment will be made in writing. This offer shall contain a copy of the Physician\u2019s Modified<br \/>\nWork Information Sheet, or the physician\u2019s work status indicating release with restrictions, the<br \/>\nreturn to work date, the duties required to perform, the hours of work, and the duration of the<br \/>\nmodified work placement.<\/p>\n<p>In the event the employee refuses the Transition to Work Program plan, that is within the<br \/>\nemployee\u2019s restrictions and ability to perform, the University is not obligated to provide<br \/>\nalternatives. The employee must sign the rejection of the Transition to Work Program. An<br \/>\nemployee who refuses to return to transitional duty for which he or she was medically cleared<br \/>\nwill be reported to the Louisiana Office of Risk Management for appropriate action, including<br \/>\npossible termination of employment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>IV. Responsibilities<\/strong><br \/>\nIn the event a University employee sustains a job-related illness or injury, there are<br \/>\nresponsibilities for the employee, the supervisor, the Return to work Coordinator, the Human<br \/>\nResources Office, and the Transitional Return to Work Team.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1.
