What is the stay-at-work program?

The stay-at-work program encourages employers insured with the department to bring their injured workers back to work quickly and safely. If eligible, we will reimburse an employer for up to half the basic gross wages the employer paid to the injured worker during light duty or transitional work, and for the cost of instruction, tools, and clothing the worker needed to perform the approved light duty or transitional work. WAC 296-16A-020 through 296-16A-050 are the rules for employers insured with the department who are requesting stay-at-work reimbursements.
