An online seminar hosted by CPBI Pacific

Disability Management (DM) are programs directed to assist employees that are unable to work due to injury or illness, to return to work.


DM requires a coordinated effort done by a series of stakeholders to be able to be a successful program. Each of those stakeholders must know their role and how to manage their services in a timely manner to increase the benefits and the cost benefit of the program.


Success is measured in a few different ways depending on the stakeholder, but the main objective to all of them is the return to work of the employee object of those services.
We have an effective program when we align each stakeholder's objectives to help the employee, the employer, the other organizations, and the society at large. Knowing our part in this team and how to offer our best work at the best time, it is crucial.
