UWV Occupational health assessment, when will this take place?

If an employee has been absent for one year, the company doctor will issue a Occupational health assessment recommended to explore the exploitable possibilities. This involves looking at the reintegration possibilities, the load capacity and the load in the position. Often there is already a WIA benefit with the UWV and it must then be decided how this will be continued: with a WGA benefit or with an IVA benefit.

UWV | Occupational health assessment

After one year of absence, a reassessment usually takes place. Does the doctor think there are opportunities to work? Then you will receive an invitation for a Occupational health assessment to get you (partially) back to work. For example, in the future you can switch to a WGA benefit or get out of absenteeism altogether. In the course of the investigation, the Occupational Assessor Answers to the questions:

  • Can the employee return to his or her own work?
  • Can the employee's work be modified?
  • Can the employee reintegrate into other work with their own employer?
  • Are there opportunities for other work with another employer?

Preparation

As an employee, it is nice that you are well prepared for the examination. This way you can start thinking about your options: what is difficult for you, but also what would you like? Also, list your questions and take them with you as well. That way you will not find out later that you have forgotten something. If you prefer, it is also possible to bring someone along. This is highly recommended if you do not speak the language well or if you are very nervous. Understanding the conversation is very important, because it is about your future.
