Description

Fitness for Work: The Medical Aspects is a comprehensive resource on the relationship between ill health and employment. It provides specialist advice on health hazards in the workplace, fitness for work, and rehabilitation after illness or injury.

The book discusses the social aspects of work, including the impact of an employee's health on their ability to work, and how they can be supported to gain or remain in employment. It also presents tactics on reducing barriers to work for those who have overcome an injury or disease, and those living with chronic conditions.

Based on the latest research evidence and clinical advances, this sixth edition of Fitness for Work is a valuable resource for healthcare professionals, employers, and individuals seeking guidance on occupational health and fitness for work. It covers topics such as sickness absence, ill health retirement, medication, transport, vibration, and travel, providing a comprehensive view of the subject.
