Ask your question and a Long-term Disability Lawyer in Canada will answer in minutes
Hello,
I'm currently on long term disability. However, I'm very concerned that I will not be able to return to my role due to memory issues and my role isn't probably the best fit for me anymore. I asked for a modification to my role and due to system linguistics it's not possible I've been told by my employer. I'm wondering if I'm allowed to look for part time employment and would I have to check with my case manager? Also, my doctor? I think I could work in a less demanding role but I'm not sure how to proceed?
You will need to look at your LTD policy - it will outline whether or not you have any sort of partial disability provision, which typically allows you to work part-time and still receive benefits. You could also ask your case manager. If your policy doesn't specifically allow for this, unfortunately, any part time work could cause issues with your LTD benefits.
