Modified Duty Off-Site Outcomes

2014 Annual Summary

Modified Duty Off-Site (MDOS) is a unique program to assist employers in returning employees back to work following an injury or period of disability. We work with non-profit agencies to provide volunteer placements for employees with temporary restrictions that are not able to return to their original job. Each case is handled individually, with placements generally lasting no longer than 90 days. Our program is designed to be a win-win situation. The non-profits benefit from an extra set of working hands and the employee is able to resume a productive work lifestyle, while transitioning back to their regular job. Workers’ compensation and indemnity costs for the employer can be reduced as well.
