1) How long have you been out of work since your car accident?

2) Have you recovered from your accident?

3) If you have recovered, are your physically able to return to work?

4) Have you spoken to you boss, about returning to work?

5) Are you considered a valuable employee to your employer?

6) Do you possess any special job skills that are not easy for your employer to replace?

There are probably a number of other questions that need to be answered. In other words, there are a number of variables that would determine if your employer would allow you to return to work.
