KINE 4672U – Making a Work Disability Diagnosis


Students determine how to recognize the various causes of work disability and make a Work Disability Diagnosis. The flags system and the tools facilitating the completion of such a disability diagnosis with regards to the worker, the workplace, insurance and healthcare systems are explored as are the psychology of work disability and its behavioural consequences. Students will administer a WD diagnosis interview to a simulated patient to practice a worker’s interview in this context. Personal, social, legal and ethical issues related to work disability and their variations following the origin or nature of the disorder and the jurisdictions are appraised.
