If you’ve sustained an injury at your job and received workers’ compensation, then you need more than a work injury lawyer in Atlanta. There are also a few essential things to remember before you return to work. Regardless of whether or not your employer has a policy to help you make the transition back to your job, you need to look out for yourself.For instance, you should know your disability category, which will determine your work status and what types of job duties you can perform. Also, your doctor will decide when you can return to work. When you are released for work, you should notify your employer immediately.

It’s also critical that you don’t work outside of your doctor’s restrictions. Make sure that both your workers’ compensation representative and your employer have copies of your limitations, and keep a copy at work, just to be sure.
