[QUOTE="trplnkl, post: 644546, member: 13254"] TAW is a plan worked out between UPS and the insurance company in an attempt to lower the cost of an injury. The company pays the insurance company to provide TIBs and the price of that is way higher than even the highest paid hourly employee. If the injured works TAW, UPS at least gets someting for their money, if not it's money spent for no work preformed. A nother benefit for UPS providing TAW is that it cuts down on the lost time injuries that have to be reported to OSHA. UPS ranks very high for on job lost time injuries, and that;s not too good for UPS. The time limit (number of days) is set by UPS safety dept. TAW ia allowed by State law but not mandated. The number of hours you get on TAW is mostly determined by what the doctor will allow you to work. My Doc didn't want me working more the 4 hours per day. However if the doc allows for 8 hours per day and the company will let you work TAW they have to give you the 8 hours. There are so many "ins and outs" to this that it is mind staggering. Dagoof, you last sentence is the most important. [/QUOTE]
