Abstract:
Work rehabilitation refers to the process of assisting workers to remain at work or return to work (RTW) in a safe and productive manner, while limiting the negative impact of work restriction, unemployment, and work disability. The clinical practice guideline (CPG) published in the August 2021 issue of JOSPT provides guidance for physical therapy clinicians when evaluating, treating, and managing individuals who experience limitations in the ability to participate in work following injury or illness. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2021;51(8):380-381. doi:10.2519/jospt.2021.0505.
