The professional reintegration specialists of the Support Unit for Return to Work and Professional Reintegration (ARRP) are tasked with supporting CHUV employees facing work incapacity or health issues impacting their professional activity.

In this context, they analyse, in collaboration with departmental human resources units, all absence situations exceeding 30 days. They provide personalised follow-up for employees by assessing their health status in relation to the requirements of their role, then define, propose, and implement support measures tailored to each situation.

They work in close coordination with the various stakeholders involved in the professional reintegration process to promote a sustainable return to work under optimal conditions.

Furthermore, the ARRP Unit provides its expertise in absence management and professional reintegration to all its partners.
