Print this Topic Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

The percentage of injured employees returning to work with some modification of their job when they initially returned to work is the percent who have had a change in duties on their initial return to work.

 

This includes 'lighter duties', assistance at work, restrictions, etc.

 

Over the last three years there has been a gradual increase in injured Queensland employees returning to work on modified duties, standing at 77% in 2011-12. This figure is just above the national average of 76%.
