| Learn why it's important to go back to work. |
 |
Studies show that the longer you are off work, the harder it is to get back to your original job and wages. Returning to work may:
- Help speed medical recovery.
- Reduce the risk of re-injury.
- Provide a sense of job security.
- Allow you to maintain contact with co-workers.
- Preserve your earning power.

We understand some injuries are so severe you can't go back to work right away. Very often, however, early and safe return to work makes sense. Returning to work as quickly as possible is a team effort ‑ you, your doctor, and your employer communicating and working together. L&I will provide assistance when you need it.
