Return to work and suitable work

Step by step

1. 1

   Turn advice into work arrangements

   Discuss hours, duties, pace, aids, workplace and review dates without disclosing the diagnosis to the employer.

2. 2

   Build up work in a verifiable way

   Record what will be tried, for how long and when it will be reviewed. Report promptly if implementation differs from the agreed advice.

3. 3

   Explore other suitable work

   If your own work is not feasible, discuss suitable roles within the company and, where necessary, outside the company.
