If a position is not available, permanent medical removal protection benefits expire after 2 years. The worker shall also have the option of continuing in his or her original position. A worker who chooses to do so shall sign an acknowledgement of disclosure of health effects, and agreement to participate in ongoing medical surveillance, as determined by the Medical Director, shall be mandatory.
