Many employees unknowingly delay their return-to-duty process due to common mistakes.
Avoid These Errors:
- Ignoring the SAP Requirement – Employees who fail to enroll in a SAP program will remain disqualified from duty.
- Skipping Treatment or Education – If an SAP recommends a treatment program, full compliance is required.
- Delaying the Return-to-Duty Test – Employees should complete all steps as soon as possible to avoid long gaps in employment.
- Not Following Up with the SAP – A SAP must confirm that the employee completed the program successfully.
Following all SAP instructions carefully ensures a smooth and timely return to work.
