| Abstract |
Several aspects of job fitness evaluation must be considered by industrial physicians. Possible patterns of assessment of working capacity are: no job limitations, some specific temporary or permanent limitations, temporary or permanent unfitness. Similar evaluations are required when transferring the worker to a more suitable job and in selecting adequate personal protective equipment. The industrial physician should not show bias towards either the employer or the worker. |
