5.1
Return To Work. These events consist of all illnesses and injuries reported by
workers who are required to clear through the site's Occupational Medicine clinic to be
pronounced "fit-for-duty". Health events are eligible for reporting regardless of whether
they are determined to be occupational. Return-to-work clearances indicate the number of
days absent, but alternative work schedules have become increasingly common and the
number of actual work days absent may be difficult to determine by examining the dates of
absence. Sites must identify methods to determine the length of absence when alternative
work schedules are involved. Although the Illness and Injury Surveillance Program accepts
illness absence data involving any length of absence, most analyses focus on those events
involving absences of 40 or more consecutive work hours. This analysis criterion is derived
from Order 10 CFR 851, which requires a fitness for duty examination at the occupational
medicine clinic following any occupational illness or injury, or when an employee returns
after five or more consecutive workdays of absence (or the equivalent period for a worker on
an alternative work schedule) for a non-occupational illness or injury. The data elements for
return-to-work events include:
