The course will provide an understanding of the overall return-to-work process. The course will explore the various types of injuries and the industries in which these typically occur.

An interview with an occupational health clinician provides insight into a typical day, and the role of collaboration between rehabilitation professionals and occupational health clinicians is assessed.
