Article 10Section 2.Day of Injury(a) An employee who is injured on the job and is sent home or to a hospital, orwho must obtain medical attention, shall receive pay at the applicable hourly rate for thebalance of the employee's regular shift on that day. An employee who has returned toregular duties after sustaining a compensable injury, and who is required by theworkers' compensation doctor to receive additional medical treatment during regularlyscheduled working hours, shall receive the regular hourly rate of pay for such time.(b) In the event that an employee sustains an occupational illness or injury whileon a run away from the home terminal, the Employer shall provide transportation bybus, train, plane or automobile to the home terminal if and when directed by a doctor.The Employer agrees to provide any employee injured locally appropriatetransportation, including an ambulance when the nature of the injury so warrants, at thetime of injury from the job to the medical facility and return to the job, or to theemployee's home locally if required.(c) The employee must by the end of the shift or in the case of a driver who is ona trip, upon return to the home terminal or prior to the next dispatch if appropriatepersonnel are not available on the return, notify the Employer of an injury sustained andcomplete the required forms.Section 3.Modified Work(a) The Employer may establish a modified work program designed to providetemporary opportunity to those employees who are unable to perform their normal workassignments due to a disabling on-the-job injury. Recognizing that a transitionalreturn-to-work program offering both physical and mental therapeutic benefits willaccelerate the rehabilitative process of an injured employee, modified work programsare intended to enhance worker's compensation benefits and are not to be utilized as amethod to take advantage of an employee who has sustained an industrial injury.(b) When implemented, modified work programs shall be in strict compliancewith applicable federal and state worker's compensation statutes. When offered toqualified employees, as defined in this Article, modified work must be accepted, andrefusal to accept modified work by an employee, otherwise entitled to worker'scompensation benefits, may result in a loss or reduction of such benefits as specificallyprovided by the provisions of applicable federal or state worker's compensationstatutes. Employees who accept modified work shall continue to be eligible to receive"temporary partial" worker's compensation benefits as well as all other entitlements asprovided by applicable federal or state worker's compensation statutes.42
Article 10(c) At facilities where the Employer has a modified work program in place,temporary modified assignments shall be offered in seniority order to those regular fulltime employees who are temporarily disabled due to a compensable worker'scompensation injury and who have received a detailed medical release from theattending physician clearly setting forth the limitations under which the employee mayperform such modified assignments. Once a modified work assignment is made andanother person is injured, the second person must wait until a modified work openingoccurs, regardless of seniority. All modified work assignments must be made in strictcompliance with the physical restrictions as outlined by the attending physician. Allmodified work program candidates must be released for eight (8) hours per day, five (5)days per week. The Employer, at its option, may make a modified work offer of lessthan eight (8) hours per day where such work is expected to accelerate therehabilitative process and the attending physician recommends that the employeeworks back to regular status or up to eight (8) hours per day by progressively increasingdaily hours. A copy of any release for modified work must be given to the employeebefore the modified work assignment begins.It is understood and agreed those employees who, consistent with professional medicalevaluations and opinion, may never be expected to receive an unrestricted medicalrelease, shall not be eligible to participate in a modified work program.In the event of a dispute related to conflicting medical opinion, such dispute shall beresolved pursuant to established worker's compensation law and/or the method ofresolving such matters as outlined in the applicable Supplemental Agreement. In theabsence of a provision in the Supplemental Agreement, the following shall apply:When there is a dispute between two (2) physicians concerning the release of anemployee for modified work, such two (2) physicians shall immediately select a third(3rd) neutral physician within seven (7) days, whose opinion shall be final and bindingon the Employer, the Union and the employee. The expense of the third (3rd) physicianshall be equally divided between the Employer and the Union. Disputes concerning theselection of the neutral physician or back wages shall be subject to the grievanceprocedure.For locations where the Employer intends to implement a modified work program or hasa modified work program in place, the Local Union shall be provided with a copy of thecurrent form(s) being used for employee evaluation for release and general jobdescriptions. This information shall be general in nature, not employee specific.When a modified work assignment is made, the employee shall be provided with thehours and days he/she is scheduled to work as well as the nature of the work to beperformed in writing. A copy of this notice shall also be submitted to the Local Union.43
