Abstract

Having a productive occupation is seen as fundamental to an individual's health and wellbeing. Employment provides structure, self-identity, a means to provide for oneself and social inclusion. The Government has made a commitment to invest in supporting people back into the workplace following illness. This opinion piece reflects the authors' interest in how this applies to service users with a forensic history, who face additional barriers to employment. It calls on occupational therapists to share research and practice accounts of vocational rehabilitation within forensic settings in order to contribute to the evidence base for this area of occupational therapy practice.
