What a return-to-work note does
Also called a fitness-for-duty or return-to-duty note, this document confirms a licensed provider has assessed you and cleared you to resume work. Unlike a simple absence note, it looks forward — to whether you're ready and under what conditions.
How it works
-
Tell us about your recovery — what you were out for and the role you're returning to.
-
A licensed provider assesses your readiness — a real US-licensed provider reviews your situation.
-
Get your clearance note the same day — with your return date and any restrictions, ready for your employer.
What your return-to-work note can include
-
Confirmation you were assessed and cleared by a licensed provider
-
Your return-to-work date
-
Temporary restrictions or accommodations — e.g. reduced hours, no heavy lifting, or modified duties
-
Provider details and signature your employer can verify
Return safely — and on the record. A clearance note protects both you and your employer by documenting that a provider signed off on your return and specified any limitations for a safe transition back.
Common return-to-work situations
-
Recovering from surgery or a medical procedure
-
Coming back after COVID or another contagious illness
-
Resuming work after a stretch of extended illness

Is an online return-to-work note legitimate?
Yes. A licensed US provider conducts a real telehealth assessment and issues your clearance only when it's clinically appropriate. It's a genuine, signed, verifiable fitness-for-duty note. If your absence itself still needs documenting, see our doctor's note for work. Learn why online notes are valid →
