Workers Comp Articles

As part of a comprehensive workers compensation program, employers should maintain close communications with injured employees to ensure they recover quickly, do not drop out of the workforce and and return to work rapidly.

Get Well Cards are part of a positive, proactive communication strategy. These are occupational injury get well cards for industrial or professional worksite settings.

Packages of 10 Get Well cards can be customized with your company logo and a special message.

Inside message:
Hope You Feel Better,
You Are Missed At Work!

BUY GET WELL CARDS

Employees appreciate receiving a get-well card. It perks up the spirit and helps the injured worker remain engaged in the workplace. Have fellow workers sign the get-well card. It helps injured workers recognize that the employer has their best interest in mind. Include a gift certificate to the local pizza parlor so the whole family can enjoy a complimentary dinner at a difficult time.

• Sending the right message – that the employee is a valued part of the business — is one of the most important keys in a successful workers’ comp program.
   
• The employer’s goal is to communicate to injured workers that staying out of work is not an option, i.e., fostering a psychological desire in the worker to return to work.
   
• Informal communication allows the employer to “stay in touch” and reinforces the message that the employee is a valuable asset as a human being and worker.
   
• As a follow-up to the first day phone call and before weekly meetings are scheduled, send a Get-Well Card to the injured employees – it shows you care about their well-being.
