What You Can Do

You can quickly assess workplace injuries, determine appropriate work restrictions, and generate customized return-to-work protocols that meet OSHA, ADA, and insurance requirements. This skill guides you through structured evaluation of injury severity, creates phased duty-restriction schedules, and produces compliance-ready documentation that HR and medical teams can implement immediately.

Features

Injury Severity Classification

Automatically categorize injuries by severity level (minor, moderate, serious, lost-time) based on injury type, location, and employee history to determine appropriate assessment depth.

Duty Restriction Templates

Generate specific work restrictions and light-duty assignments tailored to the injured area and employee role, ensuring they remain productive during recovery.

Phased Return-to-Work Schedules

Create multi-stage RTW timelines with progressive workload increases, medical clearance checkpoints, and concrete milestones for full duty restoration.

Compliance Documentation

Produce documentation templates aligned with OSHA recordkeeping, ADA reasonable accommodation requirements, and workers compensation regulations.

Risk Assessment Matrices

Evaluate reinjury risk using occupation, injury type, employee age, and previous incidents to recommend safeguards and monitoring frequency.

Accommodation Planning

Suggest ergonomic modifications, equipment changes, and job restructuring options that enable safe return to work without compromising productivity.

Medical Clearance Tracking

Track required medical evaluations, specialist sign-offs, and fitness-for-duty examinations with status checklists and escalation alerts.

Example Output

Injury Assessment Output Example:

code
Employee: John Martinez | Role: Assembly Line Lead
Injury: Right shoulder strain, moderate
Work Restrictions: No overhead reaching, no lifting above 10 lbs, limited repetitive arm motion

Phased RTW Schedule:
- Week 1-2: Desk work only, 50% shift
- Week 3-4: Light assembly tasks, 75% shift
- Week 5-6: Full assembly with restrictions, 100% shift
- Week 7: Full duty clearance (pending PT sign-off)

Compliance Notes: ADA accommodation letters sent, OSHA 301 initiated, workers comp claim filed

Risk Assessment Example:

Reinjury Risk: Moderate (similar injury 2 years ago, physical role, age 42) Recommendation: Weekly check-ins for first 4 weeks, ergonomic station audit, PT continuation through return
