Non-Occupational Injury or Illness. A worker who is disabled as a result of a non-occupational illness or injury will have the same rights under this agreement as a worker disabled as a result of occupational causes. Every effort will be made to return the worker to work in an early and safe manner as provided in this agreement. Employees wishing to participate must have their doctor provide the pertinent information as outlined above. In the event there are two injured workers with similar restrictions, seniority will prevail when placing the employee(s) in the program. In the event of a disagreement regarding the medical information, the Company reserves the right to an independent medical evaluation by a doctor mutually agreed between the parties and the Company will pay for evaluation.
