I have an advice sheet that i use for managers contemplating RTW plans for staff still off sick to help them prepare themselves for the options, employees who are that stage to either give the GP or I send it to the GP when requesting a report or if I want them to do something.
Happy for you to fiddle with it but it has helped a lot in getting some GP's on board with the fact that their patient does not have to be 100% fit to return to get back to work. Have also attached a template letter to the GP with paragraphs we delete as appropriate.

We are looking into how best we can get GP's on board when trying to get members of staff back to work after long term sickness. We have thought about simply writing to individual GP's to advise them of what is possible in terms of adjustments with a request that they discuss it with their patient. Do any other members of the list do anything similar? If so, do you have any letter templates that you would be prepared to share with us?
