Common use of Coordination of Transitional Duty Clause in Contracts

Coordination of Transitional Duty. Transitional Duty is applicable to compensable injuries as determined by the Bureau of Workers' Compensation whether lost time or medical only. Once an employee returns to work under the Transitional Duty program, Salary Continuation is payable in medical-only claim. For example, if an employee is off four days and returns to work under an approved Transitional Duty program, the four days will not be considered Salary Continuation. If, however, the employee returns to work under Transitional Duty and must then be excused for physical therapy or doctor visits in order to continue Transitional Duty and recover from a work-related injury, Salary Continuation is payable while the employee is off the work site. The employee shall provide to his or her supervisor appropriate medical documentation supporting attendance. Appropriate medical documentation should include the date, time in and time out, and the medical provider’s signature.
