3  TRAINING & IMPLEMENTATION PHASE

Steps 11 through 13

The steps in the Training & Implementation Phase involve a training program for all employees from top management to individual workers who are involved in the workers' compensation/injury management process.

  • Employees will be up-to-date and comfortable with any new forms, policies, and procedures
  • Following training will be the actual implementation (going-live,) the point at which all new changes are officially adopted
