Is RETAINWORKS for Me?

If a medical, physical or mental health challenge has kept you from working regularly, completing work tasks well or makes it difficult to get a job, this information may be helpful.

Whether the health condition is work-related or not, an injury or illness (new or chronic), we can share information on how to develop a personalized Return-to-Work plan with your clinical provider. We call this approach RETAINWORKS because workers in Kansas have tested this plan to allow them to retain work at their best level when they are medically ready.

    Individuals with all levels of illness or injury will be considered. Even with the most significant disability, you can be a productive employee, whether it means returning to your old position or finding a new employment match.
