FiledMarch 3rd, 2003Return to work agreements are used to establish a set of conditions for an employee returning to work following treatment for alcoholism or addiction to other substances. Generally, these agreements are negotiated among the employer, the treatment provider, the employee and, where applicable, the collective bargaining agent. These agreements are useful in defining the responsibilities of the employee, consequences if agreed-upon conditions are violated, and the employer’s responsibility.
