Offering temporary transitional work for injured workers can bring numerous benefits to both the inured worker and employer. By providing injured workers with temporary work assignments that accommodate their physical limitations, employers can help injured workers stay productive and stay engaged in the workplace while they recover from their injuries.

Some specific benefits of offering Temporary Transitional Work include:

• Reduced worker’s compensation costs: by getting the injured workers back to work quickly, employes can reduce workers’ comp costs associated with lost workdays and disability payments.
• Improved employee morale: temporary transitional work assignments can help injured workers feel valued and supported by their employers, which can boost morale and reduce risk turnovers and show commitment to employee wellbeing.
• Compliance with disability laws: may disability laws require employers to offer temporary transitional work to injured workers who are able to work with reasonable accommodations.
