Work Accommodation Strategies

Based on an analysis of the worker profile (functional ability) and work environment (i.e., essential tasks, and physical and cognitive demands) strategies are developed in order to coordinate reintegration into gainful employment or maintain the ability to participate in a current employment position. Strategies may include a gradual increase of work hours and tasks to ensure a successful and durable return to work following injury or illness; work pacing strategies (i.e., work rotation); modification of duties; and ergonomic strategies.
