Abstract

Older workers that sustain an injury effecting their work performances are increasingly being treated by rehabilitation professionals. Often, these persons are tested with popular standardized assessment tools that have obtained their normative data on young or middle-aged subjects. This article examines the normative data relating to some of these assessment tools and the potential injustice imposed upon older workers when they are compared to these standards.
