Premier Workers’ Comp Disability Reemployment Vendor
The workers' compensation system seeks to help injured workers return to productive employment. Studies show that the longer a person is off work, the less likely they are to return to gainful employment. Potentially a devastating effect on the worker, their family, and the community at large! Work Bridge Group is a full service return-to-work vendor, providing reemployment support to the insurance claim professional and the clients they serve. With a depth of vocational expertise in insurance litigation, risk management, and return-to-work best practices, our team is the perfect choice for RTW claim support.
Return-to-work requires a coordinated effort among vendor suppliers, employers, injured employees, and the workers' compensation carrier. Firmly committed to technology advancements, integration with existing claim system processes is our specialty. From self-insured employer RTW program support to the one-off high-exposure litigated claim, we aim to provide prompt, cost-effective documentation of RTW feasibility.

Light Duty Transitional Return-to-Work Programs
The claim buzzwords of today (and probably tomorrow): “Not-for-Profit Placement (NFP).” Or, more accurately described, an employer sharing an injured worker with an offsite volunteer organization that can directly benefit the local community. Employers in the trucking, hospitality, construction trades, and a host of other highly physical industries employ some of the finest employees in the world. When injury temporarily prevents an employee from physically performing their regular job, light-duty jobs are a critical part of successful recovery.
Offsite paid volunteerism offers a proven alternative to traditional onsite modified duty job offer options. Work Bridge Group specializes in coordinating offsite light duty placements with local community service organizations. Read more about our alternative return-to-work programs here.
