Drug, alcohol and substance abuse issues.
Many injuries that occur in the workplace can be handled with simple medical support, however a small costly percentage require more comprehensive management. These cases test the resources available to the employer. Edge People Management is skilled and experienced in dealing with cases just like these. Edge People Management’s team of experienced injury management consultants can assist in solving the problems and overcome the barriers that may prevent an injured worker from returning to productive employment through strategic resolution practices.
A number of injured workers experience difficulty with a straightforward return to work following their injury. These workers, and their employers, often require assistance in structuring a programme that maximises the worker’s likelihood of returning to productive employment. The coordination of this process is called ‘injury management’. Edge People Management’s consultants assess the barriers impeding full return to work and recommend appropriate services and plans to achieve the most favourable outcome for all parties. This is facilitated through ongoing liaison between the injured worker, employer, treating doctors and insurer.
