Read the following scenario and answer questions.
Organizations have a long history of managing returns to work involving cases of physical disability. However, evidence from WCBs across Canada shows that claims involving disability due to mental health issues are the fastest growing segment of disability claims. Heavier workloads from flatter organizations and hiring freezes have put increased pressure on workers in many industries. Information and communication technologies have greatly increased the pace of work and blurred the boundaries between work time and non-work time (family time, leisure time, or community time) . Mental health absences from work can also be as a result of being involved in or seeing a traumatic incident in the workplace.
-What can a return-to-work coordinator do to ensure that negative stereotypes of people with mental illness do not result in a returning worker feeling stigmatized?
A) keep the employee's reason for absence private and confidential
B) help to develop and make available a mental health assessment for all employees
C) transfer the worker to a supervisor who has also experienced a mental health issue
D) ensure coworkers cannot transfer to other jobs/workgroups to avoid the returning worker
