Rehabilitation and Re employment Rehabilitative employment is an important feature of the Plan which provides an employee with additional financial incentive and assistance to re-enter the work force. It is defined as any employment within the Company and remains in effect until the employee is offered regular employment. If during the disability period, an employee becomes capable of working, the Company shall endeavour to provide an (disabled) employee with work he/she is capable of performing. It is recognized that an employee must be prepared to attempt rehabilitative employment. In the event the employee refuses reasonable rehabilitative or regular employment, he/she shall be terminated and forfeit all rights to LTD benefits. During rehabilitative employment, remuneration will be prorated based on the hours worked and the hourly rate of the current base rate of the rehabilitative position. Employees will continue to receive approved LTD/Sick Leave benefits, however, the benefit level will be adjusted so that the total of the rehabilitative earnings and these benefits shall not exceed the current base rate of the position occupied prior to disablement. After the employee has successfully completed his/her rehabilitative employment and has been placed in a regular job on a continuing capacity, he/she will be paid at the normal rate of the job in which he/she has been placed, subject to any applicable retrogression policy.
