Working with Employers

We will take the time to establish a relationship with employers and document their instructions with regard to worker’s compensations injuries, such as return-to-work policies, light-duty programs and drug policies. We keep this information on file and work with the employer and the injured employee to ensure the appropriate information is communicated.
