#WorkAndHealth
Same diagnosis. Different person. Different workplace. Different outcome.
That's why vocational rehabilitation can't stop at diagnosis.

A good vocational plan can change
Because people change
Circumstances change
Health changes
Work changes
Sometimes the right professional response is not to push harder towards the original goal
It's to pause, review and adapt

Person-centred doesn't mean agreeing
with every choice.
It means making space for the person to understand
their options, consider the implications and participate
meaningfully in the decision.

What happens to health when work suddenly stops? New research suggests the answer depends on how meaningful that work feels.

HeAL director, Dr Rachel Forshaw, will be presenting new evidence from the UK furlough scheme at #CeLMRHERU2026

Sometimes, an IWH scientist’s impacts go beyond just the #WorkAndHealth field.

That is the case for Dr. Dorcas Beaton, whose expertise spread to the field of clinical health outcomes.

Her career focused on measuring upper extremity #MSDs, and the influential DASH Outcome Measure: buff.ly/HNRgyWR

Work can mean much more than earning a living.
It can provide:
✨ purpose
✨ routine
✨ connection
✨ confidence
✨ identity
✨ a sense of contribution
What does meaningful work mean to you?

This HRD Canada article highlights the need to integrate safety data into #HR strategy, pointing to the financial benefits as a key factor when making the case to senior leadership.

IWH President & Senior Scientist Dr. Peter Smith contributes research-based insights: buff.ly/h1WTq29

Why safety data is now a strategic imperative for HR leaders
Workplace safety data is moving from the OHS silo into the boardroom – and CHROs need to lead that shift, say experts

Invisible doesn't mean insignificant.
Many health conditions can't be seen
That doesn't make their impact any less real
Vocational rehabilitation helps people access the right support to remain in, return to and thrive in meaningful work.

Fair, secure work supports good health - but for too many, it's out of reach.

Our research in Chapeltown shows how poor job conditions and structural inequality compound to worsen health. Local advice services are key to breaking the cycle.

It’s about the work people do every day—often under pressure, often without enough support.
And for a lot of people, that work takes a real toll on their health.
👀 Like this if work and health should be balanced

VR has no single professional identity
Different professions
Different expertise
One shared purpose:
Helping people achieve meaningful, sustainable work.
That's what makes vocational rehabilitation multidisciplinary.

When did you last reflect on your practice?
The VRA Standards Audit Tool can help practitioners and services consider:
What's working?
What could be stronger?
What should we do next?

One question can change everything.
"What matters to you?"
It's a simple question, but one that helps us understand the whole person and support meaningful work.

Rehabilitation is a team effort.
Great vocational rehabilitation happens when people work together.
Individuals.
Employers.
Healthcare professionals.
One shared goal.
Supporting meaningful work.

Self-care isn't about doing less.
It's about doing what's sustainable.
Managing energy.
Building confidence.
Creating routines that support health and work.

Success is helping someone remain in work, adapt with confidence and continue achieving what matters to them.
Vocational rehabilitation is about sustainable outcomes, built through collaboration, practical action and seeing the whole person.

Many workplace challenges become harder to resolve simply because support wasn't accessed early enough.
Voc rehab encourages open dialogue between individuals, employers and healthcare professionals—helping people stay in work and thrive.
