Often an injured worker’s primary treating physician will opine that the injured worker is capable of some type of modified or light duty work. In this instance it is important for the injured worker to advise his or her employer of the work restrictions. If the employer can accommodate the work restrictions then the injured worker can proceed to work in the modified capacity. If the employer cannot accommodate the work restrictions then the injured worker may be eligible for temporary disability.

If you or someone you know have questions about Light Duty Work, a California Workers’ Compensation category, contact the experienced Workers’ Comp. Attorneys at Bowman & Associates at 916-923-2300.
