Common use of Non-Industrial Modified Duty Clause in Contracts

Non-Industrial Modified Duty. The City may accommodate an employee disabled with a non- industrial disability by providing a modified work assignment in that employee's classification. To be eligible for such a modified assignment, the employee must provide the Human Resources Department with a medical statement from his/her treating physician that clearly states the medical limitations and abilities of the employee. If modification of that position does not serve the best interests of the City, other classifications may be considered, subject to the approval of the Director of Human Resources. Compensation will be provided at the level of the classification in which the temporarily disabled employee works during the disability. The employee must meet standards of satisfactory performance for the duration of the work assignment.
