Return-to-Work CD-ROM
Having a return-to-work (RTW) program in place – including a modified duty component – benefits employers and employees. Offering modified duty to injured workers saves money by speeding an injured workers' medical recovery, reducing claims costs and holding down premiums. Our new Return-to-Work CD-ROM is packed with clear step-by-step instructions for creating a RTW policy for your company, designing modified-duty tasks and completing the formal modified-duty job-offer process. For a free copy, contact your Pinnacol return-to-work specialist at 1-800-873-7242 or 303-361-4000.

Safety Materials
Pinnacol policyholders can order free safety resources including training booklets, videos, and posters by submitting a Resource Materials Order Form. Or contact your safety consultant at 1-800-873-7242 or 303-361-4000.

Slips, Trips, and Falls Prevention Program
To help you prevent slip, trip, and fall injuries in your workplace, Pinnacol has developed a comprehensive safety awareness program with tools and information you can use year-round. The program includes a PowerPoint presentation for employees, monthly safety talks, quarterly posters, monthly paycheck stuffers, a facilities checklist, and information on safety incentive programs. You can order your program using the Resource Materials Order Form or by contacting your safety consultant. The program is also available on the Loss Prevention CD-ROM.
