Relationship Between Age, Tenure, and Disability Duration in Persons With Compensated Work-Related Conditions.
The aim of the study was to examine the relationships among age, tenure, and the length of disability following a work-related injury/illness. ⋯ Findings indicate that age is a more important factor in disability duration than tenure; however, the relationship between age and disability duration varies based on tenure, suggesting that both age and tenure are important influences in the work-disability process.
