What is the required period symptom-free for patients with BPPV or acute/chronic peripheral vestibulopathy to return to work?

Patients with Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) or acute/chronic peripheral vestibulopathy must demonstrate a symptom-free period of 2 months before returning to work. This duration is necessary to ensure that individuals have fully recovered and are not experiencing any lingering effects that could impair their balance, coordination, or overall function.

The extended timeframe allows for a comprehensive assessment of their condition, ensuring that they can safely engage in work activities without the risk of vertiginous episodes that could lead to accidents or injuries, especially in safety-sensitive positions such as driving or operating heavy machinery. This 2-month symptom-free requirement is crucial for both the health of the individual and the safety of others in the workplace.
