What are Suitable Duties?

When a worker is not medically fit to perform their normal work tasks ‘suitable duties’ or ‘medically restricted duties’ may need to be identified, so the worker can continue to work, albeit at a limited capacity.

Workers who have a medical condition that could be aggravated by their work may be entitled to request suitable work duties from a medical practitioner. This means that an employer would have to modify the employee’s job duties to accommodate their current condition.

What is a Suitable Duties Plan?

A suitable duties plan is a document that outlines an employee’s job duties and their current limitations due to a medical condition. The plan is usually developed in consultation with the employee’s treating doctor or medical practitioner and it is designed to protect the employee’s health and safety while accommodating the needs of the employer and employee.

There are a variety of reasons why an employee may need a suitable duties plan or medically restricted work plan. The most common reason is to protect the employee from further injury or illness. For example, an employee who has been injured on the job may need a medically restricted work plan to ensure that they do not perform any duties that could exacerbate their injury.
