This unique reference reveals what works best in preventing workplace disability. Preventing and Managing Disabling Injury at Work examines the changing nature of the workplace and work force and includes recent information on effective early and staged multi-modal interventions in the workplace. The text also explores psychological risk perception and the essential linking of the workplace, clinician, insurer, and worker in the recovery process and in the prevention of subsequent disability events. Well-illustrated with case studies and practical examples, much of the book focuses on the common musculoskeletal disabilities and "regional disorders" along with other, broader applications.
