Here are a few things you should ask your employer upon your return.
Can You Accommodate My Work Restrictions?
Many people who go back to work after an injury may have work restrictions. Most commonly these include weight restrictions, avoiding prolonged standing or sitting, or being unable to walk long distances. Your employer should be able to make accommodations for your work restrictions. Bring a note from your doctor with these restrictions in writing. If your employer refuses to make accommodations, you need to speak with your attorney.
