Abstract
Work rehabilitation refers to the process of assisting workers to remain at work or return to work (RTW) in a safe and productive manner, while limiting the negative impact of work restriction, unemployment, and work disability. The clinical practice guideline (CPG) published in the August 2021 issue of <i>JOSPT</i> provides guidance for physical therapy clinicians when evaluating, treating, and managing individuals who experience limitations in the ability to participate in work following injury or illness. <i>J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2021;51(8):380-381. doi:10.2519/jospt.2021.0505</i>.
