Professor Katherine Lippel has been awarded a joint CIHR−SSHRC Partnership Grant for a project entitled “Policy and practice in return to work after work injury: Challenging circumstances and innovative solutions.”
Thanks to funding received by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council, in the context of the Healthy and Productive Work competition, we have gathered a multi-disciplinary team of 17 academics, 17 partners and over 20 trainees to address the overarching policy question:
How can Canadian public policies promote better practices to
ensure sustainable return to work for all injured workers?
