RT Book, Section A1 Shuping, Lee A1 Hill III, James A2 Mitra, Raj SR Print(0) ID 1159837164 T1 Work-Attributed Musculoskeletal Conditions T2 Principles of Rehabilitation Medicine YR 2019 FD 2019 PB McGraw-Hill Education PP New York, NY SN 9780071793339 LK accessmedicine.mhmedical.com/content.aspx?aid=1159837164 RD 2024/10/11 AB Successful management of work-attributed musculoskeletal conditions requires the clinician to be knowledgeable about the injury as well as the individual's occupation, essential job functions, and environment. This chapter will provide an overview of specific musculoskeletal conditions attributed to performing job-related tasks. We will also discuss the return to work process as it relates to workers’ compensation and disability determination in the setting of fitness-for-duty and own-occupational disability. Of note, many of the traditional occupations and associated job functions that have historically been associated with work-attributable musculoskeletal disorders have diminished secondary to advances in automation and engineering in the developed world and, in certain cases, this work has shifted to other workforces globally.
