Toolkit, hotline to help employers achieve better return-to-work results
Liberty Mutual has introduced resources to help employers achieve better results from their return-to-work programs.
Paula Aznavoorian-Barry, program manager for vocational rehabilitation and return to work for Liberty Mutual Group Benefits, said that a well-managed RTW program benefits both a company and its employees. Reducing an employee's time away, she said, minimizes the company's costs to cover the absence.And by actively participating in a return-to-work program, the employee remains engaged and restores her previous earning potential. "A return-to-work program is a critical part of a disabled employee's recovery," Aznavoorian-Barry said. "Our new resources help employers build and sustain strong return-to-work programs and communicate their value."
The toll-free RTW hotline that enables supervisors, HR and benefits managers to speak with certified rehabilitation professionals and receive answers to general questions on the RTW process. "Return-to-work programs are well-worth the effort required to build and sustain them, especially during times when employers need to function more efficiently with limited resources," Aznavoorian-Barry said.
