H.R. 10358: Return to Employment Through Understanding and Recovery Navigation Act

This bill would direct the U.S. Department of Labor, working with the Department of Health and Human Services, to share information and raise awareness about returning to work after a stroke or other serious health event, such as a traumatic brain injury or heart attack.

What it would do

• Help survivors of stroke and similar conditions, and their families, understand options for getting back to work.
• Inform private employers, government agencies, employee representatives, and service providers about how to support these workers.
• Promote access to reasonable accommodations for employees who are recovering from these conditions.
• Help employers better understand how to provide those accommodations in the workplace.
• Encourage self-employment and entrepreneurship as possible work options for survivors.

Reporting requirement

The Secretary of Labor would have to send Congress a report within one year after the bill becomes law, and then once every year after that, describing what actions were taken under this program.
