The employee returning from industrial accident keeps talking about anxiety.
There is an employee who returned to work after finishing medical treatment for a work-related injury,
The hospital opinion stated that a return was possible, so we were even planning to proceed with the department placement, but he says he feels very anxious about doing the same work again.
They said they were worried another accident might happen and that it would likely be difficult to focus on their work immediately.
I think I can discuss work adjustments with the department, but I'm not sure to what extent HR should address this kind of psychological anxiety.
I'm not sure if it's appropriate to suggest a meeting with the health manager first, or if it's okay to suggest things like EAP counseling as well.
How did those who returned to work after an industrial accident usually respond to cases like this?
