Proposed Improvements
3. Workplace Injury Every time an employee clocks in, you face a major risk
Someone somewhere stands the chance of being hurt.
Injuries not only impact an employee’s health and welfare, they also interrupt company’s productivity.
4. Workplace Injury Cont… Injuries are bound to occur in the safest of places & workplace injury cost companies
Billions in lost productivity
Increased workers comp insurance costs
Fines and often litigation
Once an employee becomes injured, getting him/her quickly but safely back to work is everyone’s priority.
5. Recovery Process Paper based notification of employee’s injury to occupational medicine provider/ onsite physician
Physicians visit the jobsite, to assess injured employee’s nature of work and work condition
This is an expensive process
Physician himself might get injured while on tour
6. Recovery Process Cont…. Human Resource has to provide all details pertaining to the injured employee’s Job Description.
Hours of work, physical activities involved on a daily basis….etc….
Physician compiles information from his visit and the information received from HR.
Provides an approximate date the employee can return to work, after assessing his/her recovery progress.
7. Need for a Central Tracking System Obstacles/Impediments in the existing process
Delays in physician’s onsite visit due to unavoidable circumstances.
Delays in Human Resource's input regarding injured employee’s job description
As a result, employee’s return to full duty is delayed
8. Continued… From the organization’s point of view
Lost work time
Additional costs incurred because of Physician onsite visit
Affects the organizations Productivity
Extended periods away from work might result in employee’s loss of pay (for no fault of his…..)
9. Continued….. All the points discussed till now lead to following conclusion,
There is a lack of communication b/w all members of the Return to Work team
HR, Physicians, Supervisors…..(RTW Team)
What we need is a central communication system to bring the team members on the same page.
10. Injury Tracking System Injury Tracking System is designed to,
Ensure clear communication b/w all members of return to work team.
Provides valuable job specific information to physicians enabling them to make quick but safe release to work decisions.
Addresses the need by providing scientifically measured job task analyses online to physicians.
11. Continued…. The Injury Tracking System,
Is not a claims management system
It is designed to easily interface to and complement the existing claims management software, by providing specific job information not routinely managed in the traditional claims management system.
12. Continued… Injury Tracking System flow
13. Continued….. Roles in the systems,
System Administrator
For creating/editing new users in the system
Employee
The employee himself can update his personal details and view the status of his request.
Supervisor
This will be employees supervisor who will also be the coordinator of the request team
Doctor (Physician)
Physician attending to the injured employee.
14. Continued….. Technologies Used for Implementation
GUI/Presentation: Java Servlet/JSP
Database: MySQL (JDBC)
Web Container: Apache Tomcat 4.1.
Other Open source API’s: FOP (Formatting Objects Processor) for generating PDF.

21. Continued….. Another feature of this project is the PDF report generation for a RTW request.
To achieve this an open source tool called Formatting Object Processor (FOP) is used to convert request data in XML to PDF.
FOP uses the standard XSL-FO file format as input, lays the content out into pages, then renders it to the requested output.
One great advantage to using XSL-FO as input is that XSL-FO is itself an XML file, which means that it can be conveniently created from a variety of sources.
The most common method is to convert semantic XML to XSL-FO, using an XSLT transformation.
