The goal of this is two-fold:

  1. First and foremost, it’s to ensure the best possible support for your return to work. We want to ensure we are fairly managing people who may have health conditions by getting medical information from a General Practitioner or from occupational health. After a few days, it’s the responsible thing to do. Your doctor may make specific recommendations or suggest reasonable adjustments that we have a duty of care to provide as your employer.
  2. Second, it’s to help us prevent policy abuse at scale. At MUI, trust is given upfront, but it can be lost. For instance, through misconduct or deception. Please take to heart that we expect instances of policy abuse to be rare in occurrence, but that we take them seriously. **
