During the pandemic we encountered the isolation, uncertainty, and fear that is familiar to an injured employee’s experience. It made us rethink nearly everything relative to work, including our approach to returning injured or disabled employees to the workplace. Return-to-work (RTW) programs are a vital to employee engagement and retention. In today’s competitive employment market, lacking an effective RTW strategy exposes your business to the risk of losing talent. This session offers a new approach to employee retention and engagement in the RTW process that creates a greater sense of connection.
