Tue, 13 Oct 2009 14:37:16 +0000 http://www.hrmorning.com/?p=5275#comment-28678 I would like to know the answer to the question Kelly G. has as well because we want to provide modified duty for work related injuries. "In the example of a temporary 20-lb. lifting restriction that can disqualify the person due to the essential function of the job, what’s the difference if this is as a result of non-work related vs. work related in which case an employer may provide modified duty for work related, but may not for non-work related restrictions. Is this an issue under the amendment, does anyone have experience w/ this?"
