Return to work

When an employee is injured on the job, Sedgwick’s goal is to ensure they get back to health and work as safely and quickly as possible.

Our experts provide several key services to facilitate safe and healthy stay at work and return to work options.

We also offer transitional work placement as an alternative solution for employers that are unable to provide modified duty positions for injured employees. Our team identifies temporary work opportunities with not-for-profit organizations in the employee’s community and oversees the process.
