ESM Solutions specializes in Return to Work (RTW) programs as an effective Workers’ Compensation cost control measure. Here is our three phase process:

A RTW program is designed to help injured employees remain a productive member of the workforce without impeding their recovery or risking additional injury. Having an effective RTW program helps reduce Workers’ Compensation costs, control Experienced Modification (X-Mod), facilitate the injured worker’s recovery, and increase potential for a positive resolution of the claim.

Additional benefits of implementing a RTW program are to:

• Reduce or avoid temporary or permanent disability payments

• Reduce medical costs as injured workers experience faster recoveries when they remain at work in a work environment that is congenial with their physical capacity

• Reduce or avoid litigation

• Discourage fraudulent claims

• Improve productivity and morale among all employees

• Avoid the replacement and training costs of hiring a new employee

• Identify cross-training opportunities that enhance employees’ abilities in their jobs

• Increase awareness of safe work practices and injury prevention
