Why choose an informal reintegration meeting?
- Easy to arrange: a non-binding meeting at the employee’s request, without all the paperwork of a formal reintegration process.
- Clarification and advice: the occupational physician listens, gives advice and looks at the possibilities for a feasible return together with the employee.
A visit prior to returning to work is very useful if there is already a good understanding between you and your employee. It provides an informal insight into all the possibilities for ensuring a successful return to the workplace, without any pressure or obligations.
What is an informal reintegration meeting?
A visit prior to returning to work is an informal, voluntary, and confidential discussion between an employee on sick leave and the occupational physician, which can take place without the employer’s knowledge if desired. Both the employer and the employee can request this.
During this meeting, the occupational physician discusses:
the employee’s medical situation
factors that enable or stand in the way of a return to work
advice on a feasible return to work – possibly with modifications
It is intended as an open reflection that focuses on well-being, without any formal obligations or consequences. Based on the occupational physician’s advice, a meeting can be arranged with the employer to see whether a return to work is possible (with or without modifications).
How does Mensura help in practice?
A listening ear from the occupational physician: the employee is able to explain the situation in complete confidentiality and receive personal advice on the various possibilities for returning to work.
Medical and professional advice: the occupational physician looks at whether a return to work is possible – with or without a modified set of tasks.
Neutral intermediary: the occupational physician acts as an advisory and independent party between your employee and yourself.
