Alternate Duty Policy shall include, but not be limited to, the following:

(2) Mandatory alternate duty assignments shall be based upon medical
documentation satisfactory to management. Such satisfactory
documentation must include a prognosis of a return to the full duties of the
injured worker’s original job within 60 calendar days from the date upon

examined. Medical documentation shall not be reviewable under Article
