LIGHT DUTY REQUIREMENT. Light duty is available at the discretion of management and will be reviewed as needed. An employee who is off work as a result of an on-the-job injury/illness may be returned to work and given temporary light duty within the employee's ability to perform as determined by a physician. By definition, light duty work is a temporary assignment. A physician shall determine the duration of any such period of temporary and only in terms of when the light duty work may be initiated and/or an employee may return to work. Any such light duty work shall be compensated at the rate of pay for the employee's regular classification (such temporary light duty shall not be used to circumvent the seniority provisions of this Agreement).
