Here's why temporary assignment is a winning solution for employers as well as workers
Temporary assignment is a mechanism provided for in the Act Respecting Industrial Accidents and Occupational Diseases (LATMP). It allows an employer to temporarily entrust work to an employee who has suffered an employment injury, even if the injury has not yet been consolidated.
This measure aims to encourage people to return to work by maintaining the employment relationship and reducing the costs associated with prolonged absences.
The benefits of temporary assignment
For the employer:
- Reduction in compensation costs and CNESST contributions: By keeping the employee at work, the company can reduce the benefits paid and the associated contributions.
- Maintaining productivity and internal expertise: The employee continues to contribute to the company's activities, thus maintaining his know-how and added value.
For the worker:
- Retention of salary and benefits: The employee keeps 100% of his salary and benefits, unlike an income replacement benefit, which generally represents 90% of the net salary.
- Preventing isolation and facilitating rehabilitation: Retention in employment promotes social and professional reintegration, reducing the risk of the injury becoming chronic.
