Work Adjustment Training

Work Adjustment is a specialized structured program that is facility or community based and designed to assist the individual in acquiring or improving work skills, work behaviors, work tolerance, interpersonal skills and work ethics. The individual is placed in work situations at the site, their overall performance is assessed and specific measurable goals are developed to improve their performance to facilitate successful entry or return to work. Work Adjustment services focus on both the specific job skills and the soft skills associated with employment such as, stamina, grooming and hygiene, attendance, punctuality, social skills, team work, problem solving, customer services and productivity.

Individuals are typically referred by the Ohio Bureau of Worker’s Compensation, the Ohio Rehabilitation Services Commission, the Department of Veterans Affairs, Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment Division and the VRP3/Pathways Projects.
