When to request an ACC Stay-At-Work programme
For a work or non-work injury or for post ACC funded surgery – Any employee who has an ACC18 medical certificate following an injury, and providing the employee is receiving weekly ACC compensation, the company can request a pre-approved ACC Stay-at-work programme if you consider the person will need or benefit from support with their return to work or injury rehabilitation.
FAQs
Our ACC-funded Stay at Work Programmes are designed to support the management of injuries influencing recovery and return to work outcomes.
We work closely with ACC and our Lead Provider (Proactive4Health) to create tailored programmes. These Programmes include personalised treatment plans which could include input from one or more clinical disciplines, employee education and engagement and collaboration with your business to ensure a safe, early and sustainable return to work.
You should request an ACC Stay-At-Work Programme for employees who have suffered work or non-work injuries, or who have undergone an ACC-funded surgery. If an employee is receiving weekly compensation due to an injury (such as being off work or on reduced hours), you can request a pre-approved Programme directly with us to support their return to work or injury rehabilitation.
These Programmes increase the likelihood of a successful return to the workplace, facilitating a safe and sustainable return to work as quickly as possible. They also minimise the financial impact on both parties and reduce the disruption to an employee's daily life and the smooth operation of your business.
