Is your organisation an excessive giver, an excessive taker, or have you got the balance right? The table below lays out the warning signs of an unhealthy injury management culture.
Signs of problem return to work culture:
| • | Employees avoid reporting problems or report late. |
| • | Graduated return to work programs progress slowly. |
| • | Claim rates are higher than expected. |
| • | A significant proportion of staff remain on long-term restricted duties. |
| • | More than 5% of claims are investigated. |
| • | The organisation consistently faces resistance or lack of response from treating doctors. |
