Work Activities Research Articles

Мәтіндік және стандартты емес есептерді шешу әдістері

One of the most important tasks of primary education is the development of logical thinking. Textual and non-standard tasks have a special place in the formation of students' thinking abilities. By mastering the solution of such problems, we form in the student such qualities as search for innovation, self-attitude, perseverance. The article discusses textual and non-standard tasks and solutions found in the course of elementary mathematics, the technology of criterion-based assessment. The concepts of "text task", "non-standard task" were defined. This article presents a methodology for criterion-based assessment of students' academic achievements in mathematics lessons. The peculiarity of this technology is that when solving a task, students create descriptors, which are subsequently used in formative and aggregate assessments. Each descriptor is a step in the algorithm that solves the problem. Particular attention is paid to the use of various methods by primary school teachers in solving text problems, the importance of observing and supporting the child's non-standard ideas. The habit of finding other ways to solve the problem, the ability to use various ways and means of solving the problem plays a huge role in the future work, scientific and creative activity of the student. As a result of the research work, the main recommendations for finding a solution to text and non-standard tasks were developed. The advantages of using the criterion-based assessment system in mathematics lessons are revealed.

Performance Management Systems and Employee performance in Selected Ministries in Enugu State, Nigeria

The broad objective of this study is to investigate performance management systems and employee performance in selected ministries in Enugu state, Nigeria. Two hypotheses were formulated in line with the objectives of the study. The study adopted a descriptive research design and survey method for data collection. The population of the study was 637. The study sampled the entire population due to the size of the studied population. The instrument for data collection was a structured questionnaire. Data presentation was on tabulated frequency and statistical Mean Score. Hypotheses were tested using a t-test. The results of the findings revealed that Performance planning has significant positive effects on employee performance levels in selected ministries in Enugu state(this is where the t-value = -796.442, and p-value = 0.00); that performance target setting systems do significantly drive positively employee performance level (where t-value = -295.988, and p-value = 0.00); and that Performance monitoring does significantly propel positively employee performance rate (where t-value = -128.604, and p-value = 0.00). The study, therefore, recommends that the Enugu state government should prioritize PMS through proper planning of work and work-related activities by adopting a friendly work environment and by setting clear, measurable goals, setting achievable goals for individuals and organizations; continuously monitoring the level of goal achievement and providing feedback.

Work and the Veins. A Retrospective Analysis of Work Activities in Patients with Chronic Venous Disease

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between work activities and chronic venous disease of the lower limbs. Patients referred to our clinical units of Interuniversity Center of Phlebolymphology for chronic venous disease (CVD) assessment between January 2019 and December 2023 were retrospectively enrolled in the study. Inclusion criteria were (a) CVD status confirmed by office visit and Duplex ultrasound, (b) not having any other vascular disease of the lower limbs (such as arterial or lymphatic problems), (c) work activities of at least 1-year duration, in the medical records. A total of 948 patients (642 females and 306 males) were retrospectively enrolled. Of these, 613 patients (431 females and 182 males) were affected by CVD and 335 patients (211 females and 124 males) were not affected by CVD and served as controls. Sedentary jobs and jobs where the ambient work temperature ambient is hot have been associated with CVD. Other types of work with no sedentary activities or with a cool ambient work temperature were not associated with CVD. Work activity and the occupational environment may be tightly related to the onset and progression of CVD. Forced postures, excessive standing or sitting, and high ambient temperatures can reduce lower limb venous function at work and cause CVD.

Overweight and obesity as risk factors for chronic low back pain: a new follow-up in the HUNT Study

BackgroundNumerous studies have examined associations between overweight and obesity and risk of low back pain (LBP), but the exact magnitude of these associations is not yet clear. The purpose of this work was to assess such sex-specific associations in a community-based setting in Norway, taking into account potential relationships with other risk factors.MethodsA cohort study was conducted combining data from two waves of the Trøndelag Health Study, HUNT3 (2006–2008) and HUNT4 (2017–2019). Separate analyses were performed of risk of chronic LBP in HUNT4 among 14,775 individuals without chronic LBP in HUNT3, and of recurrence or persistence in HUNT4 among 5034 individuals with chronic LBP in HUNT3. Relative risks were estimated in generalised linear models for overweight and obesity compared to normal weight. Body size classification was based on values of BMI computed from measurements of height and weight. Chronic LBP was defined as LBP persisting at least 3 months during last year.ResultsAfter adjustment for age, smoking, physical activity in leisure time and work activity, analysis of risk among women produced relative risks 1.11 (95% CI 1.00–1.23) for overweight, 1.36 (95% CI 1.20–1.54) for obesity class I and 1.68 (95% CI 1.42–2.00) for obesity classes II-III. Relative risks among men were 1.10 (95% CI 0.94–1.28) for overweight, 1.36 (95% CI 1.13–1.63) for obesity class I and 1.02 (95% CI 0.70–1.50) for obesity classes II-III, the last estimate being based on relatively few individuals. Analyses of recurrence or persistence indicated similar relationships but with smaller magnitude of relative risks and no drop in risk among obesity classes II-III in men. The change in BMI from HUNT3 to HUNT4 hardly differed between individuals with and without chronic LBP in HUNT3.ConclusionsRisk of chronic LBP increases with higher values of BMI in both sexes, although it is uncertain whether this applies to very obese men. Very obese women carry a particularly large risk. Probabilities of recurrence or persistence of chronic LBP among those already afflicted also increase with higher values of BMI. Adjustment for other factors does not influence relationships with overweight and obesity to any major extent.

THEORETICAL PRINCIPLES OF THE FORMATION OF SPIRITUAL CULTURE IN FUTURE TEACHERS OF ARTISTS

The problem of spirituality, spiritual culture and their role in the formation of the creative personality of student youth is quite relevant. The process of forming spirituality is an important aspect of the modern humane educational paradigm. According to the scientific community, it is spirituality that expresses the degree of "humanization" of the pedagogical process. Questions of spirituality have interested humanity at all times and have been studied by many sciences: philosophy, pedagogy, psychology, sociology, ethics, aesthetics, etc. In the New Ukrainian School Program in the Progress to Values, it is stated that now it is important to intensify efforts to raise the spiritual level of Ukrainian youth, to form a stable system of deep moral and spiritual values in them. The purpose of the article is to describe the concept of spiritual culture and the formation of artistic ideas in future teachers during the study of Ukrainian folk art. Analysis, synthesis and modeling methods were used to study the state of research. The results of our research was carried out with the help of empirical methods: pedagogical observation, questionnaires, interviews, testing, the method of experimental evaluations. Mathematical statistics methods were used to process the research results. In the research, we used a complex of general scientific and pedagogical methods. To ensure an objective and comprehensive study of the researched phenomenon, an analysis of scientific, scientific-methodical, and art sources was carried out; the state of development of the problem and prospects for further research were determined; generalization of pedagogical experience in teaching art in a higher education institution. The formation of a spiritual personality takes place in the interconnected process of education and training. An important role in the formation of the spiritual sphere of the individual belongs to education. Its tasks are classified according to the following directions: formation of a scientific outlook; education of a conscious attitude to learning, development of cognitive activity and culture of mental work; education of political consciousness and development of civic activity; education of a creative attitude to work, preparation for a conscious choice of profession; education of morality and culture of behavior; formation of legal awareness and education of civil responsibility; education of aesthetic culture and development of artistic abilities, etc.

Association of social isolation and depressive symptoms with workplace productivity loss in a multi-ethnic Asian study

The association of health-related productivity loss (HRPL) with social isolation and depressive symptoms is not well studied. We aimed to examine the association of social isolation and depressive symptoms with productivity loss. Data on employed adults aged 21 years and above were derived from the Population Health Index (PHI) study conducted by the National Healthcare Group (NHG) on community-dwelling adults, residing in the Central and Northern residential areas of Singapore. The severity of depressive symptoms and social isolation were assessed using the 9-item Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) and Lubben Social Network Scale-6 (LSNS-6) respectively. Productivity loss was assessed using the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire (WPAI). We used Generalised Linear Models, with family gamma, log link for the analysis. Models were adjusted for socio-demographic variables (including age, gender, ethnicity, employment status, housing type) and self-reported chronic conditions (including the presence of diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia). There were 2,605 working (2,143 full-time) adults in this study. The median reported percentage of unadjusted productivity loss was 0.0%, 10.0% and 20.0% for participants with social isolation, depressive symptoms, and both, respectively. In the regression analysis, mean productivity loss scores were 2.81 times (95% Confidence Interval: 2.12, 3.72) higher in participants with depressive symptoms than those without. On the other hand, social isolation was not found to be associated with productivity loss scores (1.17, 95% Confidence Interval: 0.96, 1.42). The interaction term of depressive symptoms with social isolation was statistically significant, with an effect size of 1.89 (95% Confidence Interval: 1.04, 3.44). It appeared that productivity loss was amplified when social isolation and depressive symptoms were concomitant. Our results suggested significant associations of social isolation and depressive symptoms with productivity loss. These findings highlighted the potential impact of social isolation and depressive symptoms on work performance and drew attention to the importance of having a holistic work support system that promotes social connectedness, mental wellbeing and work productivity.

Economic burden and quality of life of caregivers of patients with sickle cell disease in the United Kingdom and France: a cross-sectional study

BackgroundSickle cell disease (SCD), a genetic blood disorder that affects red blood cells and oxygen delivery to body tissues, is characterized by haemolytic anaemia, pain episodes, fatigue, and end-organ damage with acute and chronic dimensions. Caring for patients with SCD imposes a high burden on informal caregivers. This study aims to capture the impact on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and economic burden of caregiving for patients with SCD.MethodsValidated instruments of HRQoL (EQ-5D-5L, Carer Quality of Life-7 dimensions [CarerQol-7D]) and productivity (Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire: Specific Health Problem [WPAI: SHP]) were administered via a cross-sectional online survey to caregivers in the United Kingdom (UK) and France. Demographics, HRQoL, and economic burden data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Economic burden was determined using country-specific minimum and average wage values. Subgroup analysis examined caregivers with and without SCD.ResultsSixty-nine caregivers were recruited (UK, 43; France, 26), 83% were female, and 22% had SCD themselves. The mean (SD) caregiver EQ-5D-5L score was 0.66 (0.28) (UK, 0.62; France, 0.73), and the mean CarerQol-7D score was 80.69 (24.40) (UK, 78.72 [25.79]; France, 83.97 [22.01]). Mental health problems were reported in 72% and 70% of caregivers measured using the EQ-5D-5L and CarerQol-7D, respectively. Financial problems were reported by 68% of caregivers, with mean annual minimum wage productivity losses of £4209 and €3485, increasing to £5391 and €9319 for average wages. Sensitivity analysis determined additional HRQoL decrements for caregivers with and without, SCD.ConclusionCaring for patients with SCD impacts the HRQoL and economic burden of caregivers. Further research to support the complex needs of SCD caregivers is required.

Health-Related Quality of Life Outcomes With Etrasimod Treatment in Patients With Ulcerative Colitis: A Post Hoc Analysis of Data From ELEVATE UC 52 and ELEVATE UC 12.

Etrasimod is an oral, once-daily (QD), selective sphingosine 1-phosphate1,4,5 receptor modulator for the treatment of moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC). Here, we evaluate the impact of etrasimod 2mg QD on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with UC. This post hoc analysis used data from the Phase 3 randomized controlled trials, ELEVATE UC 52 and ELEVATE UC 12. HRQoL measures included: Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ), 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36), and Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire: Ulcerative Colitis (WPAI:UC) completed at baseline, Week 12 (both trials), and Week 52 (ELEVATE UC 52 only). For IBDQ analyses, patients were stratified by prior exposure to biologics/Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi) and baseline modified Mayo score (MMS; 4-6 or 7-9). Generally, significantly greater proportions of patients receiving etrasimod (N = 527) vs placebo (N = 260) achieved IBDQ remission (IBDQ total score ≥170) and IBDQ response (IBDQ total score increase from baseline ≥16), with significant improvement in all IBDQ domain scores at Week 12 and maintained through Week 52. Significant differences in IBDQ remission and IBDQ response rates between etrasimod and placebo were more consistent among biologic/JAKi-naive patients vs those who were biologic/JAKi-experienced and in those with baseline MMS 7-9 vs 4-6. Significant improvements were observed in several SF-36 domain and summary scores and WPAI:UC domain scores at Week 12 and Week 52. Etrasimod 2mg QD demonstrated significant and clinically meaningful improvements across multiple HRQoL measures, including WPAI, vs placebo. ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03945188; NCT03996369.

Implications of Victim Blaming Narratives for Sex Workers: Informing Social Work Practice and the Law

The purpose of the paper is to explore social works practice response to sexual violence and the impact of victim blaming narratives for sex workers. Using a feminist standpoint epistemology, in keeping with an interpretivist/feminist qualitative framework, we critically explore the oppressive structures which impact on service users′ lives. Data collection consisted of interviews with 15 female sex workers in the Republic of Ireland. In locating sex workers experiences, we set out the argument that social work practice is complicit in victim blaming narratives in response to sexual violence. Themes emerging from the data to support this claim are (1) victim blaming perspectives for sex workers (2) reporting sexual violence to authorities, and (3) impact of the Law. By using the Irish standpoint, and the 2017 Criminal Law (Sexual Offences) Act, where sex work activities remain subject to penal measures our paper provides conclusive evidence which calls into question social works response to sexual violence. We argue for a revised social work response to sexual violence which includes a critical examination of ′victim blaming′ narratives and the current legislative process which inform their practice.

A survey of speech-language pathology service delivery in Australian schools

Purpose Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) work in Australian schools yet, little is documented about their service delivery practices. This study therefore explores Australian speech-language pathology service delivery in schools, inclusive of work activities, caseloads, and assessment and intervention practices. Method An online survey comprising multiple choice, constant sum, Likert scale, and open text questions was completed by 105 SLPs. Quantitative data was analysed using descriptive statistics while open-text responses were analysed using content analysis. Result Participants were predominantly government education department employees working in multiple schools, and caseloads ranged from 10 to 240 students for full-time SLPs. While responses varied considerably, some general trends emerged. Most time was spent on intervention, followed by non-contact tasks, and assessments, with differences across employment sectors. Language was the most common student need, followed by literacy and speech. Frequently reported factors contributing to client complexity and intervention frequency were co-occurring presentations, severity of student needs, caseload size, and impact on learning. Caseload manageability was a concern for participants who reported larger caseloads, spent more time in assessment or less time in therapy than others, and worked in education departments. Conclusion Findings have implications for policy makers, professional bodies and employers, and provide direction for future systematic data collection.

The Role of Surrendering to God in Reducing Work-Related Stress Among Office Workers

Abstract Background:Work-related stress is a common mental health concern among office workers. Surrendering to God during work activities may help prevent or reduce the risk of work-related stress. Objectives:This study aims to examine the correlation between surrendering to God and work-related stress among office workers at the Head Office of Company X. Methods:A cross-sectional study design was used in this research. A total of 149 respondents were selected through simple random sampling. Results:The study found that 24.5% of workers experience work-related stress. It also revealed that higher levels of surrendering to God as measured by dimensions such as effort (ikhtiar), patience, gratitude, acceptance of fate, and faith in God are significantly correlated with lower levels of work-related stress among office workers. Conclusion:It is crucial to promote and enhance the practice of surrendering to God in work environments to help prevent work-related stress among office workers. Organizing training to improve employees' emotional and spiritual management capacities is vital for maintaining their mental health. Keywords:surrendering to god; work-related stress; office workers

Unveiling mobility patterns beyond home/work activities: A topic modeling approach using transit smart card and land-use data

In this paper, a probabilistic topic modeling algorithm called Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) is implemented to infer trip purposes from activity attributes revealed from smart card transit data in an unsupervised manner. While most literature focused on finding patterns for home and work activities, we further investigated non-home and non-work-related activities to detect patterns associated with them. Temporal attributes of activities are extracted from trip information recorded by Tehran subway’s automatic fare collection system. In addition, land-use data is also incorporated to further enhance spatial attributes for non-home/work activities. Various activity attributes such as start time, duration, and frequency in addition to land-use data are used to infer the activity purposes and patterns. We identified 14 different patterns related to non-commuting activities on the basis of both their temporal and spatial attributes including educational, recreational, commercial, and health and other service-related activity types. We investigated passengers’ activity pattern and behavior changes before and during COVID-19 pandemic by comparing the discovered patterns. For recreational patterns it is revealed that not only has the number of recreational patterns dropped, but also the duration of recreational activities decreased. Morning patterns of educational activities have also been eliminated and number of commercial activities was decreased during COVID-19. The proposed model demonstrates the ability to capture travel behavior changes for different disruptions using smart card transit data without performing costly and time consuming manual surveys which can be useful for authorties and decision makers.

Emerging psychosocial factors and work overload perceptions of Mexican university teachers and students working and studying from home during the COVID-19 pandemic.

In Mexico, academic activities during the COVID-19 pandemic were conducted from home for over 2 years. Especially during the initial months of the pandemic, the lockdown conditions necessitated a reorganization and a new understanding of social dynamics. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the perceptions of university students and teachers regarding emerging psychosocial factors that either encouraged or hindered work and/or study from home during confinement, as well as their perceptions of work overload. Furthermore, the differences between students and teachers in the studied variables were analyzed. A predominantly quantitative, cross-sectional, and correlational study was conducted with 108 participants (42.6% university teachers; 57.4% graduate or postgraduate students) who filled out an online questionnaire encompassing two open-ended inductors to identify the positive and negative aspects of working or studying from home and their frequency of perceptions, the COVID-19 Work Overload from Home Scale (ESTC-COVID-19), and questions about the hours per day devoted to different activities. The open responses were categorized by two independent groups of the research team; the emerging categories were then consensually agreed upon and further transformed into dummy and continuous variables. These variables and the results of the ESTC-COVID-19 were analyzed with SPSS 19 using Pearson's correlation coefficient, the Chi-squared test, and Student's t-test. The results identified 9 positive and 10 negative emerging psychosocial factors attributed to at least 10% of the sample's open answers. In addition, work overload correlated negatively with the emerging factor of "Making better use of time" and positively with "Work, school, and/or domestic activities overload;" moreover, students perceived more work overload than teachers. Differences between students and teachers were observed in the following psychosocial factors: "Self-management," "Comfort," and "Enjoying home" (as positive factors) and "Domestic work" and "Interruptions, distractors, noise" (as negative factors), with students generally reporting more discomfort than teachers. The study analyzes these differences in relation to the demands and nature of the study and work activities undertaken by both groups, as well as the previous training of the skills and the resources required to carry them out.

Priorities and Incentives for the Mobility of Russian IT Specialists

Introduction. The mobility of IT specialists differs from the mobility of all other socioprofessional groups. The study of mobility is relevant, since the movement of IT specialists significantly affects the peculiarities of the formation of the digital space, the success of many types of activities of modern society, and its prospects. Sociology has accumulated a scientific foundation for covering mobility based on new research principles, which makes it possible to identify specific characteristics of the mobility of IT specialists.Methodology and sources. The conceptual theoretical and methodological positions of the study are represented by a complex of ideas, the basis of which is the work of P.A. Sorokin and his followers a bout the essence of mobility. The article is based on ideas a bout the mobile society formulated in the works of D. Urry, M. Castells, B. Latour, K. Knorr-Cetina, and the provisions of the works of D.V. Ivanov about new forms of integration of the digital and streaming society, where the mobility of IT specialists begins to play a new, more important role. A number of sources were used, where attention was paid to the analysis of the mobility of Russian IT specialists as a phenomenon reflecting the characteristics of their movements in the conditions of modern Russian society.Results and discussion. Two main results of the study show, firstly, that the professional component of the mobility of IT specialists is an active beginning of movements and changes – their mobility. Ultimately, the professional mobility of IT specialists is aimed at finding the most suitable social environment that allows them to successfully implement their professional activities. Secondly, it was revealed that the specifics of the work activities of IT specialists form the motivation for changes and movements, where personal interests can be very significant and do not always coincide with the interests of IT organizations.Conclusion. Analysis of the generalized materials allows us to characterize some prospects and incentives for the mobility of Russian IT specialists, to formulate the author’s definition of mobility as a phenomenon determined by the social and professional attributes of the digital space, as well as the goals of mobility, as achieving the most adequate conditions for professional self-realization, as well as ensuring preservation and correction professional identity in the IT space.

Non-typhoidal Salmonella among slaughterhouse workers and in the pork value chain in selected districts of Uganda.

Non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) is a major cause of gastroenteritis worldwide, often associated with meat consumption and meat processing. Research on NTS infection and circulating serovars in meat value chains in Uganda is limited. We aimed to establish NTS prevalence, antimicrobial resistance, and risk factors among slaughterhouse workers, and to identify potentially zoonotic serovars in the pork value chain. We conducted a nationwide cross-sectional survey, collecting 364 stool samples from livestock slaughterhouse workers and 1,535 samples from the pork value chain: mesenteric lymph nodes, fecal samples, swabs of carcass splitting floor, cleaning water, meat handlers hand swabs, carcass swabs, raw pork, cooked pork, and mixed raw vegetables. Samples were cultured for isolation of NTS, and subsequently serotyped according to White-Kauffmann-Le Minor scheme. Antimicrobial resistance profiles were determined using tube microdilution and Sensititre® EUVSEC3® plates. Semi- structured questionnaires with 35 questions were used to collect data on demographics, work related risk factors and activities outside the slaughterhouse. Overall NTS prevalence was 19.2% (365/1899). Proportions at slaughter were; 46.7% in floor swabs, 30.5% in carcass swabs, 20.5% in pig faeces,19.2% in mesenteric lymph nodes,18.4% in hand swabs, 9.5% in water and 5.2% in slaughterhouse workers. At retail, proportions were 33.8% in pork chopping surface, 33.1% in raw pork, 18.9% in hand swabs, 4.0% in cooked pork and 0.7% in vegetables. Sixty-one serovars were identified, with significant overlap between humans and the pork value chain. Overall, zoonotic S. Zanzibar, monophasic serovars of S. subspecies salamae (II) and subspecies enterica (I), S. Typhimurium and S. Newport, were the most prevalent. S. Typhimurium was predominant in humans and exhibited multi-drug resistance. NTS infection was significantly associated with eating, drinking, or smoking while working (OR = 1.95, 95% CI: 0.67-2.90%, p = 0.004). The detected NTS serovars in slaughterhouse workers could be a potential indicator of circulating serovars in the general population. The persistent presence of NTS along the pork value chain highlights occurrence of cross-contamination and the potential for transmission to consumers and slaughterhouse workers. This emphasizes the need to reduce Salmonella prevalence on pig farms and improve hygiene and pork handling practices at slaughter and retail points.

The Impact Of Financial Compensation On The Performance Of Marketing Employees

To achieve this goal, companies need to pay attention to employees in all aspects of their work because this becomes an incentive for employees to carry out their work activities and achieve organizational goals. For this reason, it is natural to pay attention to the whereabouts of employees from the start. Employees who are company assets need to know their needs and desires so that they are expected to be able to produce job satisfaction, good performance and high loyalty to the company so as to achieve company goals. Effective human resource management requires managers to find the best way to employ employees to achieve goals. company. There are many things that can be done to empower good human resources, including efforts that include level education, training, and creating a conducive work situation or environment so that employees feel at home carrying out their work. Compensation is an important aspect in determining employee performance. Company attention is important because employees try to achieve the performance determined by the company. Realizing the importance of compensation for company performance, compensation management should be important. In providing compensation, the timeliness of providing compensation and the amount of compensation given by the company to employees affects employee morale, motivation, work performance and performance. An employee's absolute income level will determine the scale of his life and relative income shows his status and dignity. Therefore, if employees perceive that the compensation they receive is inadequate, this will cause employee morale, motivation, work performance and performance to decline drastically. Motivation is a condition that drives employees who are directed or focused on achieving company goals. Achieving this goal means also achieving the personal goals of the members concerned.

O RETORNO AO TRABALHO E AO SERVIÇO MILITAR DE ADULTOS AMPUTADOS: UMA REVISÃO DE ESCOPO

The rehabilitation of adult amputees involves, among other objectives, the return to work. In this sense, the present study seeks to investigate how the return to work and the return to military service occur for adults who have undergone amputation, identifying the factors of success and analyzing the impact of Occupational Therapy. This is a scoping review that follows the guide for scoping reviews from the Joanna Briggs Institute and includes 22 articles for final data analysis and collection. The following factors related to successful return to the labor market after amputation were identified: male gender; younger age; use of prosthesis; lower pain levels; unilateral amputations; availability of accessible infrastructure in the workplace; job function adaptations and assistive technologies; and administrative positions. Regarding the return to military service, the rank within the army was shown to be the main determinant in the individual's return to service. It is noteworthy that several demands pointed out by the studies regarding the rehabilitation process and return to work can be addressed by occupational therapists, such as the adaptation of prostheses for the specific tasks of the individual, analysis and adaptation of the work environment, pain management and reduction, work activity training, and spiritual support, since beliefs related to the sacred were indicated as the main factor of success for rehabilitation. However, only two articles mention Occupational Therapy, and in both, the service is characterized as inefficient.
