This is an example of what some may experience in the return-to-work process. Differences in experience are likely. It is important to note that this process is not federally or provincially regulated, and that each organization will have its own policies and procedures.

However, there are some laws and regulations in place to protect your rights, such as The Canadian Charter of Rights Freedoms and the Manitoba Human Rights Code or your provincial or territorial legislation. Also, provincial, federal and international rights are covered in great detail in this free resource.
