Work hardening
Workers enter this programme after physical therapy but before they return to work. They stay in it for two or four weeks. It helps improve physical abilities by using actual work tasks. Workers can start this programme only if they are motivated and ready to return to work. A job must also be available for them. The job must be open so they do not lose the skills and abilities gained during this program.
