[QUOTE="spidey, post: 80116, member: 1798"] There is a lot of confusion with returning to work, but this is my, and mine only, opinion of 100%. If you are off work for something non-work related, in other words if you were not injured at work, the company can not allow you back until your doctor says that you are 100% able to safely perform your duties. If you come back and reinjure yourself without that release, then the company is at fault. It is a horrid insurance mess. This has been policy at several large companies I've worked for. If you were not injured on the job the company has no obligation, and in many positions, can't if they wanted to, give you alternate work until you heal completely. This isn't a UPS-out-to-get-hourly issue, it's an insurance issue. Varies very much from case to case, so keep asking questions until you are satisfied with the answers. If you are recovering from something you are not disabled, legally, in most cases. No ADA issue. [/QUOTE]
