Bailey Basics Work Hardening Group

The Need for Work Rehabilitation
Despite the emergence of the Digital Age, millions of people continue to be employed in jobs that require varying degrees of physical activity. From assembly line production to building maintenance, mechanical repair, and warehouse operations, numerous tasks remain labor-intensive. Enhanced safety protocols have greatly diminished the likelihood of workplace accidents, but the nature of an accident is that it is unplanned and cannot always be avoided. As a result, some workplace injuries are inevitable and will require an appropriate response if the injured employee is to return to his or her daily routine.

To make this return possible, therapists and other healthcare workers have developed methods for helping injured employees to regain their former trade skills. Work conditioning is a form of work rehabilitation that centers on the physical aspects of ordinary human strength, flexibility, and coordination. It is often a generalized approach that aims to restore a person's neurological, musculoskeletal, and cardiopulmonary functions. Work hardening, on the other hand, often involves a multidisciplinary approach to ensure that the injured employee receives a comprehensive treatment, including physical, behavioral, and psychological.

In the end, the goal of work rehabilitation is to help injured employees recover from their disabilities so that they can continue to earn a living and to maintain independent and self-sufficient lives.
