Before you return

Obtain a return-to-work notice from your provider and submit it to Sedgwick using one of the following methods: 

If you are a Health employee, you must be cleared by Occupational Health before you can return to work.  Two weeks prior to your expected return to work date, you will need to contact Occupational Health at your primary location to schedule a non-work-related Return to Work appointment. Drop-in visits are not accommodated. Please find more information and tips on the Occupational Health website

Sedgwick will contact you 14 days before your return to confirm that you are coming back to work. Before returning:

  1. Notify your manager to confirm your return and schedule.
  2. Obtain your return-to-work notice from your provider and submit to Sedgwick.
  3. If you are returning to work with medical restrictions, please provide documentation to your supervisor and Sedgwick from your health care provider that clearly outlines the work restrictions and the duration of the restrictions.
  4. Contact Occupational Health to schedule your return-to-work appointment and obtain clearance, if necessary. 

When you return

  1. Review your history timesheets to ensure they are accurate.
    • Once you have returned to work, if you need to alter MyTime timesheets, complete the MyTime Timesheet Adjustment Form and forward to your supervisor.
  2. Check your benefits in your UCPath portal via your "Benefits Summary" page. Verify all benefits enrollments are accurate. For any benefits you suspended while on Leave, please contact the UCPath Center for assistance on how to re-enroll.
