Commencing 30 days after the effective date of these regulations, and continuing until the Administrative Director of the Division of Workers' Compensation amends Form DWC-AD 10133.32 to include notice of the Return-to-Work Supplement application process, all Vouchers issued shall be accompanied by a cover sheet, prepared by the claims administrator, containing the following notice: “Because you have received this Voucher and are unable to return to your usual employment you may be eligible for a Return-to-Work Supplement. You must apply within one year from the date this Voucher was served on you. You should make a copy of the Voucher which you will need to apply for the Return-to-Work Supplement. Details about the Return-to-Work supplement program are available from the Department of Industrial Relations on its web site, www.dir.ca.gov, or by calling 510-286-0787.” The Director will arrange for publication on the Department web site of a notice targeted at eligible persons who received vouchers before the notice was included with the voucher.
