Early Intervention and Task Assignments
The purpose of early intervention in a workers compensation injury is to dispatch a case manager to assess the situation and report findings. The objective of this assessment is to address an employee's injury as quickly and efficiently as possible and return the employee safely to work, minimizing recordable workers' compensation and lost time occurrences.
