Overview

Vocational (work) Rehabilitation is the science that underpins services to enable people with functional limitations due to illness or injury to maximise their participation in society, notably through work.

Barriers and facilitators to return to work through employment factors, service organisation and co-ordination, or intra- and inter- personal factors require ongoing research in a dynamic employment environment.

A potential supervisor, Associate Professor Rob Griffiths, is an occupational physician with VR experience in NZ and the US, and a Principal Clinical Adviser at the NZ Accident Compensation Corporation.
