1. (1) A worker is eligible for only one Employer-at-Injury Program at a time.
2. (2) When a worker in an Employer-at-Injury Program incurs a new compensable injury, transitional work for the first Employer-at-Injury Program is considered regular work for purposes of the second Employer-at-Injury Program.
3. (3) If the new injury makes the first Employer-at-Injury Program unsuitable, the worker may be eligible for a second Employer-at-Injury Program under the new injury.
4. (4) When the worker is no longer eligible for the second Employer-at-Injury Program, the first Employer-at-Injury Program may be resumed if the employer and worker still meet eligibility criteria under that claim.
