Matching physical work demands with functional capacity in healthy workers: Can it be more efficient?
Functional capacity and work demands can be matched in most instances for a varying group of workers. Normative values for functional capacity are validated and compared to direct workload measurements. Normative values can be considered as an efficient tool in clinical decision making, although restrictions apply. Comparing functional capacity to normative values enables clinicians to screen for imbalances between work load and capacityt.
