What is a Return to Work Policy?

Colorado Workers Compensation Attorney

Is your employer forcing you to come back to work before you’re ready?

Are you still recovering from a workplace injury?

Is your employer threatening to fire you over your refusal to show up for work?

Return to work policies are designed to help guide you through the process of recovering from your injuries, allow you to seek treatment through your employer's preferred medical providers, and to request accommodations that will help you return to work and resume your normal job duties.

 

Forced to go Back to Work Too Soon?

According to the Laborers’ Health & Safety Fund of North America, “in addition to financial issues, injuries create emotional strain on workers and their families. Lost wages can increase stress at home and time away from work can strain relationships with coworkers and supervisors. Being out of work for an extended time can affect a worker’s self-esteem and even lead to mental health problems such as depression. The best way to protect workers from the physical, financial and emotional harm caused by on-the-job injuries is to be proactive and prevent them from occurring in the first place.”

Colorado's Office of Risk Management and the federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission both receive and process allegations and complaints that companies have violated fair employment practices. If you or a loved one has been forced back to work too soon following an on-the-job injury, consider speaking with an experienced Colorado workers’ compensation attorney.  The attorneys at Kaufman & Kaufman, LLC. have the knowledge necessary to help you determine if your employer is acting in violation of state and federal labor laws.

"Kaufman and Kaufman was extremely professional in my case. They set appointments as often as I requested which was often weekly or more. They handled all the problems that came up and ended up settling my case for more than I expected. I was very happy with the result."

"I’ve known the folks at Kaufman and Kaufman for more than 30 years. Correct - I said 30 years. The Kaufman’s have *always* done the right thing, especially when it’s not easy. Trust, in 2022, is hard. Trusting the Kaufman’s, in 2022, is simple."

- Jeff W. (2022)

"Kaufman and Kaufman represented me in a workman’s comp case and I couldn’t be happier with their service. They were very professional and gave me the personal service I was relying on. I hope I never get in that kind of situation again but if I do the Kaufman’s would be the firm I’d call. I highly recommend them."

- Erik (2022)

"Couldn't have asked for a more compassionate and thorough legal representation! Matt was so patient in taking the time to explain everything. The entire staff was incredible. I felt bolstered and validated throughout. I would recommend K&K to anyone going through a dark time with a debilitating injury.. they truly do care about their clients."

- Jessica C. (2022)

"The Kaufman team is very professional and knowledgeable about the work comp laws . They guided me in every step of the process, and if I ever have to do this again , they would be my first call. Without them i wouldn't have been able to pay my bills, and provide for my family. Thanks again to Kaufman and Kaufman for allowing my family to survive."
