Written by practicing physicians and legal experts who regularly face return-to-work (RTW) issues, this publication simplifies the complex issues of work ability and disability certification into three relevant themes: risk, capacity and tolerance. These themes will help guide physicians through work ability and work cases for numerous diagnoses and body systems.
Guides to the Evaluation of Work Ability and Return to Work helps professionals confidently handle the key concerns of risk, capacity and tolerance related to return to work and work ability issues. It includes the latest medical literature reviewed by experts and step-by-step guidance to help negotiate return to work cases.
The second edition features new chapters, updated approaches and references from more than 20 new contributors.

Implications of unemployment, medication, work aspects and driving
Current science on functional capacity evaluations
Forms that can be used to communicate return to work guidelines
Disclaimers to use when writing return to work guidelines
