Return‑to‑Work Calendar Reminder Tool.
A one‑click download that adds every key checkpoint from our Small‑Business RTW Checklist straight into your Outlook, Google or Apple calendar. Each reminder is pre‑timed for 9 am on the correct business day, so you won’t lose momentum to weekends or public holidays.
Return to Work – Calendar Reminders (.ics)
How it works: Enter the employee’s name, date of injury, and expected duration of the claim (in weeks) to download an .ics file with every key RTW checkpoint. If a reminder lands on a weekend, it automatically rolls to Monday at 9:00 AM.
How to Find a Rehab Provider.
A rehab provider supports injured workers and employers with expert advice, planning, and coordination.
You can:
Ask your insurer to recommend a registered provider
Use the ARPA Member Directory to find a qualified rehab provider in your state
Ask other businesses in your network who they’ve used and trusted
Tip: Choose someone who communicates clearly, understands your industry, and is proactive about helping both the worker and your business.
Common questions from employers like you answered clearly and simply.
Honest, plain-English answers to the things you’re probably wondering.
“Why do we need to do this if it wasn’t a serious injury?”
Because how you respond sets the tone, whether it’s a sprain or something major. Early contact, good communication, and flexible duties reduce costs, improve morale, and help prevent claims from dragging out.
“Do we have to offer suitable duties? Is it required?”
If it’s safe and appropriate, yes, it’s one of the most effective ways to support recovery. We’ll provide example duties, and your insurer can help too.
“What if there’s nothing suitable on-site? I can’t think of anything”
Then we look at off-site or alternative options: admin, training, support tasks, or even modified hours. Recovery doesn’t have to happen all in one place.
“Won’t this just create more work for managers?”
Not if done right. A simple call, a clear plan, and light contact go further than endless paperwork and long absences. It’s a short-term effort for long-term gain.
